If this isn't a troll, sorry to break it to you, either the summer program has started or starts Monday

Was this a serious response?

Did you ever stop to think that maybe OP is asking about start dates for first-year associates?

I was trolling dude, responding in kind to what I perceived to be op trolling. But I see the error in my ways

Guess I was a bit ambiguous, but I thought it was pretty obvious that I was talking about fall start dates for first-year associates.

I did, but only because I'm getting married right before start date so had to get info to try and plan a honeymoon. First week of October for me.

Technically, its a "tentative" date and the official date would be sent out sometime in July, so I'd expect most firms would send out stuff around then.
