It depends on the school. Are you going to apply for the Early Admission (only a few schools offer that)? If you do that, you need decent GPA and you will find out sometimes in October. If you are going to apply for schools using Pharmcas, you can start applying in June, but they won't release your application until August. I think December would be really really really early to find out if you're accepted. Some schools don't even start sending out interview invitations until March. So what schools are you looking to apply?

most of these schools have much later deadlines than schools on the west coast, so it's more likely to hear back later ... but, the schools with rolling admissions (like shenandoah) will let you know much earlier ...

If you check the "old" class of 2010/2011 thread. The earliest acceptance reported was 9/28/06 by Julianne at Auburn. An acceptance from Albany was posted 10/03/06 indicating it was received 2 weeks earlier. So it sounds like late September/Early October is the earliest I would expect. Take a look at the thread and you can see which schools started sending acceptances when.
