Postgraduate Medical Schools in Australia

2027 entry (GEMSAS): CSP 63*, BMP 26*, international up to 30*. Asterisked note: approximately 40 places are reserved for ANU undergraduate (Bachelor of Health Science) pathway students; Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander places are additional/uncapped.

Bachelor degree (AQF Level 7 minimum, at least 3.0 FTE years; if completed >10 years ago, 0.5 FTE further study within the last 10 years required). Minimum weighted GPA 5.0 (3-year weighted: most recent year x3, next x2, next x1). Domestic: GAMSAT minimum Overall 50 with minimum 50 in each section. International: GAMSAT 50/50-per-section OR MCAT minimum 125 in each section (results valid 4 years); interview guaranteed at weighted GPA 6.0 plus GAMSAT Overall 60, or MCAT 515. No prerequisite subjects. Domestic = citizens/PR via GEMSAS; CSP or BMP places (at least 29% of domestic first-year places must be BMP under the federal Bonded Medical Program). Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander applicants have dedicated pathways, some GAMSAT-free, with minimum GPA 4.5.

Higher-degree research bonuses: standalone Honours +2%, Master's by research +2%, PhD +4% (only the highest applies). Rural quota: 29% of the annual intake designated for rural-background applicants (Modified Monash MM2-7; 5 consecutive or 10 cumulative years residence, documented via the GEMSAS form). Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander pathway: priority access / dedicated uncapped places, some routes GAMSAT-free with GPA 4.5 minimum. No UCAT, no portfolio, no rural GAMSAT/GPA percentage bonus published.

Online interview (Zoom), held early/mid-September 2026 for domestic applicants (GEMSAS dates Fri 4 – Fri 11 September 2026) and mid-late July for international and Indigenous applicants. ANU describes it as a two-part interview with "a variety of direct and scenario-based questions" covering a range of topics and scenarios; ANU does not label it an MMI. Interview must be passed (pathway documents define a pass as a minimum raw score of 60%).

ANU has disestablished two of its school-leaver/undergraduate feeder routes: the Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) PhB pathway and the Tuckwell Scholarship pathway to the MChD — only students with an admit year of 2026 or prior will be considered under those pathways (unverified — do not publish as fact. The ANU PhB pathway page states only: "This pathway has been disestablished. Only students who have a PhB admit year of 2026 or prior will be considered under this pathway." It says nothing about a 2% honours bonus arrangement for 2027+ PhB admits; the 2% standalone-honours bonus exists as a general GEMSAS rule but ANU does not publish this specific claim.). The Bachelor of Health Science pathway reservation was also lifted from up to 30 domestic places (January 2025 guidelines) to up to 40 domestic places on current ANU/GEMSAS 2027 pages.

20% of the domestic intake: Bond entry-requirements page says up to 180 total domestic places with "20% to graduate applicants" (~36 places); FAQ page says up to 200 total — conflict between the two Bond pages, re-verify. All full-fee domestic; no CSP, no BMP, not open to international student-visa applicants.

Domestic only (same citizenship rules as undergraduate stream). Completed recognised tertiary study with published minimum: "Cumulative GPA of greater than 6 on a 7-point scale from a recognised tertiary program" (Bond FAQ notes at least one year full-time-equivalent study). English prerequisite as per undergraduate stream (or approved equivalents). NO GAMSAT and NO UCAT required — Bond's own psychometric test + interview instead; GAMSAT is nowhere referenced in Bond's published graduate criteria.

None — "Adjustment factors cannot be used for the Bond Medical Program." The 40% Queensland/Tweed-community interview-invitation target applies to the program's interview invitations; First Nations pathway and partial scholarship available.

Individual online interview, ~90 minutes (same format and same March dates as the undergraduate stream).

Approximately 25 lateral-entry places (Bond FAQ figure for 2025); "entry is not guaranteed". Full-fee; open to BOTH domestic and international students (this is the only Bond medicine route open to international students). No CSP/BMP.

Graduates of designated Bond University programs only: Bachelor of Biomedical Science (Pre-Health Professional major), Master of Occupational Therapy, Doctor of Physiotherapy, Master of Nutrition and Dietetic Practice, or Master of Healthcare Innovations (where an equivalent Biomedical Science degree was completed first), with a minimum GPA of 3.00 out of 4.00 on the Bond grading scale. GAMSAT explicitly NOT required; no UCAT. Selection is competitive, not automatic.

None published for this pathway (Bond states adjustment factors cannot be used for the Medical Program).

Online interview (same Bond Medical Program interview process; Bond does not publish a distinct lateral-entry format).

Regional-pathway-specific graduate quota: not published. UQ MD 2027 intake overall (GEMSAS Admissions Guide listing): Graduate CSP 107, Graduate BMP 43, International (including UQ-Ochsner) 190; Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander entry has no set quota. UQ also states 28.5% of places are offered to rural-background students per government quota.

Completed (or final-year) bachelor 'key degree' of at least 3 years full-time at AQF Level 7 or above; minimum UQ-equivalent GPA 5.0/7.0 in the key degree; GAMSAT with a minimum score of 50 in each section (scores below 50 in any section are ineligible; MCAT accepted via the direct-to-UQ route); no subject prerequisites; domestic and international applicants eligible. CQ-WB RMP tier definitions: Tier 1 — resided in Central Queensland or Wide Bay for 5 consecutive years or 10 years cumulatively; Tier 2 — resided in any rural location in Australia for 5 consecutive years or 10 years cumulatively; Tier 3 — any other interested applicant.

Rural background: 'UQ awards two adjustments to the unweighted average GAMSAT score to assist rural background applicants in being more competitive for non-bonded places', plus the 28.5% rural-background quota. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander admission scheme (no set quota). No other published adjustment schemes found for graduate entry.

Multiple Mini Interview (MMI) — 'several interview stations, each with a single interviewer', conducted online (September 2026 for Round 2 of the 2027 intake; Round 1 interviews around July 2026). Interview invitation accepted via the GEMSAS portal, booked directly with UQ.

For 2027 intake per UQ pages: two application rounds (Round 1 closed 8 June 2026, Round 2 closes 14 August 2026). No announced changes to the CQ-WB regional pathway itself found; the Darling Downs–South West Medical Pathway operates as a parallel regional preference.

2027 intake (published on GEMSAS Deakin page): 160 total = 100 CSP + 45 Bonded Medical Program (BMP) + 15 international. Within the domestic places: 30 reserved for the Rural Training Stream, up to 7 held for Indigenous Entry Stream applicants, and Deakin states a minimum 25% of domestic places go to rural-background applicants (GEMSAS) / 'a minimum 50% of all course places (RTS + general stream) will be offered to students meeting rural background criteria' (Deakin course page).

Published as approximate anticipated OFFERS for 2026 entry (Doctor of Medicine Offer Preferences, August 2025 — the most recent published breakdown; all figures marked TBC): Metropolitan (Sydney) CSP 134 (includes ~30 offers reserved for undergraduate Double Degree Medicine students progressing into the MD), Metropolitan (Sydney) Bonded Medical Program (BMP) places 63, Dubbo CSP 24 — total 221. No domestic full-fee places listed. International intake number: not published. 2027-entry offer-preferences figures not yet published as of July 2026.

Domestic (2027 entry): (1) completed, or final year of, an AQF Level 7/8 bachelor's degree of at least 3 years FTE (completed by 1 Jan 2027; at least 2 years FTE at the awarding institution; degrees >10 years old need recent postgraduate study/research); (2) minimum GPA 5.0/7.0 as calculated by UAC QAS (rural applicants: minimum GPA 4.5); GPA is a hurdle only; (3) GAMSAT minimum 50 in EACH section, from a sitting in the past two years only (Sep 2024, Mar 2025, Sep 2025 or Mar 2026 for 2027 entry); (4) English language requirement. Dubbo stream additionally requires a Personal Statement on the university template. International: GPA ≥5/7 equivalent (calculated by the University), GAMSAT ≥50 each section OR MCAT ≥500, English requirement. Ineligible: applicants who previously applied unsuccessfully and have since commenced postgraduate medicine at another university. No exemptions, credit or advanced standing. NZ citizens count as domestic.

No points-based bonus schemes. Two published Facilitated Entry Schemes (both domestic): (1) Rural Applicants Facilitated Entry Scheme — for applicants who have lived 10+ years cumulatively or any 5 years consecutively (from birth) in ASGS-RA2–5 (Inner/Outer Regional, Remote, Very Remote), verified by a Confirmation of Rural Origin form (audited); rural GPA minimum lowered to 4.5 and offers may be made "with scores that are below the cut-off for standard admission". (2) Indigenous Facilitated Entry Scheme — GAMSAT requirement WAIVED from 2027 entry; GPA of at least 4.5 preferred but IAAG may recommend admission with lower GPA showing improvement; separate postgraduate-degree pathway (Level 9/10 completed within 3 years) that does not require a bachelor's degree; interview may be required. Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander and rural applicants receive priority ranking for Dubbo stream offers. No metro/GPA/research bonus points, no elite-athlete or health-employment schemes published.

Standard Metropolitan entry: no interview (interview or Situational Judgement Test reserved only as a tie-break tool for equally ranked applicants). Dubbo stream: personal statement plus interview (described as a group interview in the Offer Preferences document) assessing "interest, intention and aptitude for practising medicine in rural and regional areas". International: some applicants may be required to attend an interview, selected on admissions test results. Indigenous Facilitated Entry Scheme: interview may be required.

Published in the 2027 guides: (1) "From 2027 entry onwards, the GAMSAT requirement will be waived for applicants applying via the Indigenous Facilitated Entry Scheme." (2) GAMSAT results now valid only two years for USyd ("despite any contrary advice from ACER or GAMSAT"), with a note this "may change for future intakes." No announced changes to weighting, campuses or quotas otherwise found.

Per the GEMSAS guide for 2027 entry: 107 graduate CSP, 43 graduate BMP (Bonded Medical Program), 190 international (including UQ-Ochsner), Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander pathway: no set quota. Domestic full-fee: not offered/not published. UQ's wording: 'approximately 275 Doctor of Medicine places available for domestic students each year' and 'approximately 100 Doctor of Medicine places available for international students for the provisional entry and graduate entry pathway each year' — i.e. the ~100 covers provisional + graduate onshore international only, not 'all entry routes'; the GEMSAS figure of 190 international includes UQ-Ochsner, so there is no real contradiction with the ~100 figure. The 107 CSP / 43 BMP / 190 international / ATSI 'no set quota' numbers are confirmed on the GEMSAS UQ page..

Bachelor's degree (key degree = most recent degree, completed within 10 years); minimum UQ-equivalent GPA 5.0 on a 7-point scale in the key degree; GAMSAT with minimum 50 in each section (or MCAT minimum 504), sat within 4 years before commencement; MMI attendance. From the 2027 intake there are no prerequisite subjects — cell/tissue biology and systems physiology are 'assumed knowledge' only. Regional pathways (CQ–Wide Bay via CQUniversity, Darling Downs–South West via UniSQ) are domestic-only and ranked by three residency/rural tiers before Greater Brisbane consideration.

Rural Access Scheme: "2 adjustments towards your unweighted average GAMSAT score" for applicants with an Australian rural background (MMM 2-7 for 5 consecutive or 10 cumulative years). Rural background sub-quota: UQ states 28% of all new domestic MD places (GEMSAS guide states 28.5%). Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander graduate pathway: GAMSAT encouraged but "not compulsory"; selection via ATSIS Unit semi-structured interview plus MMI; apply direct to UQ (by 1 August 2026) and/or via GEMSAS. No admissions schemes for international students. No published bonuses for research degrees or prior health-professional employment.

Multiple mini-interview (MMI), conducted via video conferencing; multiple stations, different assessor per station. Round 1 interviews week beginning 13 July 2026; Round 2 week beginning 14 September 2026. ATSI pathway adds a semi-structured panel interview with the ATSIS Unit.

From the 2027 (and beyond) MD intake, specific prerequisite subjects are no longer required (now 'assumed knowledge' of cell/tissue biology and systems physiology). Also, UQ announced a new 6-year Bachelor of Medical Science/Doctor of Medicine vertical dual program with first intake 2027 (a new route alongside, not replacing, graduate entry).

Included within UQ's 190 international MD places for 2027 entry (GEMSAS guide: "International (including UQ-Ochsner): 190"); a separate Ochsner-only class size is not published. Full-fee international; no CSP/BMP.

US citizens and US permanent residents only (dual citizens apply as US citizens; Australian/NZ permanent residents holding US citizenship are eligible); bachelor's or master's degree with minimum B average in the most recently completed degree, completed within 10 years (one semester of undergraduate coursework can reactivate an older degree); MCAT minimum 504 within 4 years of start date (504 does not guarantee interview — 2025 cohort average MCAT was 510); MMI attendance.

None published ("There are no admissions schemes for international students" — UQ MD admission schemes page).

From 2027 entry a new quota within the graduate entry pathway is reserved for graduates of the UTAS Bachelor of Biomedicine (M3X BBiomed) — see the BBiomed/BMedRes pathway entry. The old BMedRes pathway (no GAMSAT required) is transitioning out: UTAS advises students completing the BMedRes in 2026 or later to contact the Tasmanian School of Medicine for advice. 2027 applications move to course code H7X (AQF 9).

Not published. The BBiomed quota size for 2027 entry is not published on the course page.

Outgoing BMedRes pathway (final cohorts): completed the Bachelor of Medical Research at UTAS in the year prior to commencement; minimum cumulative percentage average of 65% at completion of the BMedRes; NO GAMSAT required; rural and Tasmanian quotas do not apply. New BBiomed quota from 2027 entry: completed the M3X BBiomed at UTAS in the year prior to commencement (vertical double-degree students who complete all academic requirements for the M3X exit award qualify, with any offer conditional on taking the M3X exit award; students who complete the full vertical double degree instead apply through the general graduate entry pathway); minimum unweighted GPA 5.25 calculated from UTAS units contributing to the BBiomed award; GAMSAT minimum 50 in all three sections; rural and Tasmanian quotas do not apply. International applicants are included in the BBiomed quota from 2027 and GAMSAT is required for them.

None published specific to this pathway (rural and Tasmanian quotas explicitly do NOT apply to it).

None. "The University of Tasmania does not conduct interviews during selection for the Medicine Program."

Officially announced on the UTAS course pages: for entry to the BMedScMD from 2027, the BMedRes pathway transitions to a quota within the general graduate entry pathway for applicants who have completed the UTAS Bachelor of Biomedicine (BBiomed), and this quota will include international applicants (with GAMSAT required). Students completing the BMedRes in 2026 or later are directed to contact the Tasmanian School of Medicine for advice.
