How to Apply
Applications for domestic students should be submitted via my.application. Applicants do not need to include their Monash transcripts or any other document unless requested when applying.
Domestic students should refer to the Medicine program admission requirements to confirm their eligibility before applying.
Interviews
Monash uses a Multi Mini Interview (MMI) for the selection of students. The MMI consists of six sequential interview 'stations' focusing on an applicant’s:
- advocacy;
- collaboration;
- critical thinking;
- empathy;
- ethical reasoning;
- motivation; and,
- resilience.
At each station, the applicant will have two minutes reading time with a scenario and will then be interviewed for eight minutes (i.e. ten minutes per station) with a 'circuit’ taking 70-80 minutes to complete, factoring in time for pre-briefing and debriefing sessions. Applicants will be invited via email to participate in the MMI which will be conducted online via Zoom. Only a set number of applicants will be invited for an interview.
Important Notes
- All applicants applying for this course are only allowed to attend the MMI once. Those who are re-applying for this course and have previously attended the MMI for this course are not eligible to attend the MMI again. This means that if you have previously interviewed for the direct entry medicine program, you can be interviewed again for graduate entry medicine.
- Shortlisted applicants will be invited to attend an interview via email and will be required to log in to an online system to self-allocate a time to attend. Once the system closes, changes will not be permitted and late requests cannot be accommodated.
Fees
Domestic applicants are admitted into the program on a Commonwealth Support Place (CSP). More information can be found on the course fees website.
Other expenses domestic students would expect to incur are accommodation, transport and living expenses, plus textbooks and stationery. Read more about cost of living in Melbourne and other study costs.
Indigenous students
You can join a vibrant and growing group of Indigenous MD students studying at Monash University. The Monash University Indigenous Student Access Scheme recognises the systemic under representation of Indigenous Australians in higher education and seeks to remedy this.
Whether you are interested in starting a health career or furthering your existing career and study - we invite you to attend an interview with the Gukwonderuk Indigenous Unit. Interviews can be face-to-face or online and you can bring a family member or friend to accompany you.
