Students complete an elective rotation that may be completed overseas or in rural parts of Australia.

Bond University’s Medical Program is an integrated program and, as such, no credits or exemptions are given for previous studies, even if they are in another medical program.

This is up to the discretion of the Admissions Committee. If your Year 12 results are not high enough to meet the standard entry requirements, you may want to consider enrolling in a relevant undergraduate program, such as Bond’s Bachelor of Biomedical Science and completing a minimum of eight subjects. Your assessment for the medical program will then include your university GPA and high school results.

Applications from academically qualified handicapped students will receive sympathetic consideration and every endeavour will be made to include them in the program. However, ultimately the Admissions Committee will need to be assured that these students will be able to achieve the educational objectives of the course and contribute successfully to the medical workforce upon graduation.

Students who may be HIV/AIDS or Hepatitis B or C positive should be aware that there are likely to be some restrictions placed upon what they are able to do as medical students and eventually, as medical practitioners. Although such students will not be excluded from the program on the basis of their HIV or Hepatitis status, applicants are strongly encouraged to discuss their situation with the Chair of the Admissions Committee, so that any special arrangements can be made if necessary. Such discussions will be treated confidentially.

You will need to be in the top 10% of the state to be considered for an interview; the final cut-off, however, will depend on the applicant pool. Demand for places is extremely high so students only achieving the minimum result are unlikely to be invited for an interview.

All international applicants must apply online directly to Bond University.

All Australian non-degree holders must apply through QTAC.

You will need to complete a Certificate IV or Year 12 equivalent studies at TAFE or another certified tertiary provider. English, Maths B and Chemistry must be completed and a UMAT is required.

Your application will be assessed on the basis of your UMAT score, a combination of Year 12 and tertiary results, and a structured interview. You will need to apply as an undergraduate applicant.

You may still apply as an undergraduate applicant via QTAC. QTAC and Bond will then base their assessment on your GPA for the eight tertiary subjects completed, your UMAT result and the interview ranking. Please refer to the Assessment Table for more information.

If you have completed eight subjects or more of your postgraduate degree, only your GPA for this program will be used to assess your application. Please refer to the assessment table for further clarification. Please refer to the Assessment Table for more information.

Applicant assessment is equally weighted on both the application and performance at a selection interview. If you have PhD qualifications you will receive an automatic ranking of 99, meaning you are eligible for an interview, however, your performance in the selection interview will determine whether you will be made an offer.

Please contact the Faculty directly to discuss via 07 559 54400 or email hsm@bond.edu.au.

You will have to prove that you were not in the country when the test was held by providing certified copies of your visa or passport indicating date of entry into Australia. In certain circumstances, the UMAT criteria may be waived at the discretion of the Admission Committee.

As entry into the Bond Medical Program is competitive and dependant on the pool of applications for each intake, it is difficult to determine cut-offs on a case by case basis. Applicants need to demonstrate academic achievement equivalent to an Australian Bachelor’s degree.

• Please refer to the assessment table.

Once all applications have been received and assessed, the Faculty will determine which applicants will be invited to an interview with the selection panel. Successful applicants will be contacted directly by Bond University, usually in mid-February. Applicants who haven’t heard from us by March can assume their application was unsuccessful. These applicants will be contacted by the end of April to discuss other study options if applicable. Please refer to important dates and deadlines for more information.

All short-listed applicants will be required to attend an interview (the selection interview) in person on campus at Bond University. The interview will examine an applicant’s skills in the following areas:

• Communication
• Leadership and teamwork
• Ethical problem-solving and decision-making

The interview is not science-based and applicants cannot prepare for it.

No. Student numbers are strictly limited and applicant places must be accepted in the year for which they are offered. Successful applicants who find they cannot accept the offered place are welcome to re-apply at any future time.

Bond University does not offer any scholarships for the Bond Medical Program, however Bond Medical Program students can apply for a Queensland Health Rural Health Scholarship. Students may also be eligible for up to $100,000 of assistance through FEE-HELP.

Bond University accepts a maximum of 15% international students into each cohort.
