What time does UW release more A&O slots?

I’d like to get into the first A&O session, but because I waited so long to make my decision no slots are left until August. According to their website they’ve released 25% of the slots already, and are adding another 25% today, April 2nd. Does anyone know what time this will be so that I can make sure to get into one of the first sessions?

If anyone is looking for this info in the future, slots were released at 8:30 PST

Everyone is guaranteed a A&O session, right? If so, why the hurry? Any advantage of booking early?

You register for classes during A&O, so getting first session gets you first pick at classes+schedule.

Got it. That is super important since the freshmen classes fill up quickly.
