Matriculation is the dividing line between applying to a medical school program and officially becoming an enrolled student. The matriculation process for students at IU School of Medicine includes completion of admission tasks, a fun-filled orientation week, and a community service learning activity which celebrates the new phase in the student’s educational journey.

In 2023, students in the Class of 2027 gathered on their home campus to participate in orientation activities and take the Physician's Oath, beginning their journey in medicine.
