I made my appointment to NJH in January. They will call you and ask many questions before they give you an appointment and then if you have specific doctors you want they have to work that out as well. You will then receive a packet in the mail (which also includes places to stay, etc.) to read thoroughly and send in a sputum sample. You will be appointed an "Ambassador" and she is great about answering any questions. I go on May 2nd-May 12 and I can't wait.
