I'm gonna warn you right now, the application process is intense. You need to provide your personal info, your gaming habits, your experience with Bioware games, and after 11 pages there's an essay portion! To be quite frank it's a bit much for a beta. I don't know why they couldn't have done the "give us your email and maybe you'll get in" deal. 

The more I think about it, it's kind of weird they're cherry picking ideal candidates for the beta.

My opinion aside, it's still a thing and if you're up to the 11 page application, you can maybe be selected for it!
