The Transition to Medical School course is a weeklong introduction for matriculating medical students to NYU GLISOM. Using multiple venues and formats, incoming students become familiarized with * our campus spaces (including education, clinical, and living) * our teaching community (faculty, academic coaches, education leadership, and administrative support) and learning environment * their fellow learners and near-peers * their curricular and para-curricular schedule, activities, responsibilities, and opportunities * their education and health resources such as financial aid, library, educational technology, and Student Health * the policies and procedures that guide daily operations of the medical school and the NYULH health system The week culminates in a momentous white coat ceremony for students and their families.
