Congratulations on your acceptance to HWCOM! There is still a lot to do before you start class in July, and we want to help you get off to a great start. Here is valuable information to help guide you through the process! Please check this website periodically for updates.

Pre-Matriculation

Freshman Onboarding

Freshman Onboarding helps you transition smoothly into medical school. During this week, before classes begin, you will learn about our medical school curriculum, policies and procedures, get to know your classmates and become familiar with campus resources and services. By the end of onboarding, you will be well on your way to becoming a successful Wertheim Medicine medical student.

Dates for Freshman Onboarding for the Class of 2029 are TBD. Details will be updated and communicated as they become available. Attendance is mandatory for all onboarding activities. The White Coat Ceremony for the Class of 2029 is also TBD.
