As an accepted member of the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine Class of 2013, you can be extremely proud of your many accomplishments. You’ve worked very hard to reach this point, and your intelligence, dedication, compassion and other unique personal qualities have led to your recognition as one of the most promising students to enter medical school in 2009.

That’s why we’re so pleased to welcome you to Wright State, and we look forward to providing you with the finest medical education possible — and to helping you fulfill your potential to become one of tomorrow’s finest physicians.

We're here to help

As you prepare for this exciting next stage in your professional training, you can count on us for support and assistance every step of the way.

We want to make your transition to medical school as positive as possible and prepare you for success right from the start.

Exclusive portal for incoming students

We have also created this portal exclusively for incoming students like you. If you’ve browsed the medical school or university Web site, you probably have a sense of the vast amount of information available online. Here, we’ve collected and organized some of the most useful and pertinent material for you in one convenient place.

Please follow the links on the left side of this page to see what's new. They cover a variety of important topics you may want to explore at different points in your transition to medical school — or even after you become a first-year student. Visit the links to the right for information on critical deadlines and requirements. Check out our RSS Feed to view new podcasts.

Look for our newsletter

On a regular basis, we will also explore each of these topics in more depth with feature stories, podcasts and comments by current students, faculty or alumni. We hope these glimpses of life on campus, in our affiliated hospitals, and around the Dayton region will help you imagine yourself here and look forward to the next four years. Be sure to check your Wright State e-mail account to receive our newsletter.

Please, though, don’t wait on us to contact you. If you ever have questions, need assistance, or simply want to reach out to some of the people who may become like a second family to you for the next several years, don’t hesitate to contact us. We want to help, and you’re the reason we’re all here.

Again, congratulations, and we’ll be in touch!
