Assessment centre timelines

I’ll be away for the opening dates of most FT consulting applications (August/September). I can make the applications and do the OAs and VIs remotely, but I’m worried about missing any ACs. Any advice on the usual turnaround time from application to AC for most MBB/T1/T2 firms?
