Incoming A1 - Drug Tests

Anybody know what's the deal with drug tests for incoming first years? Will the big banks be testing at all with covid and the new NYC marijuana testing ban? In typical years, when would the drug test actually happen - sometime near the start date in June/July or earlier?

Sorry for all the questions, just trying to get some peace of mind. Thanks everyone
