I believe it is stiil early.   I remember seeing it around Jan/Feb?   Try the DND site.

i tried the site but nothing was wrote about it, i know for sure that it isn't jan/feb cause i watch the canforgen for it, its probably in the summer.

The UTPNCM CANFORGEN comes out sometime in July.  Then the members have until October to apply, do testing and interviews. The board sits sometime in the new year, and you hear if you've been accepted between March and June.
Hope this helps.
