UPCOMING INTAKES AND KEY DATES
- Mid year (July intake) applications due: 31 May 2024
- Start-year (February intake) applications due: 30 November 2024
Late applications may be considered subject to available places.
There are a limited number of Commonwealth Supported Places (CSPs) for this course. To ensure you are considered for a CSP, submit your complete application prior to the application deadline.
How to apply
1. Review entry requirements and eligibility
- Check the entry requirements tab of this course page and ensure you meet the admission criteria.
- Review the English language requirements.
- Consider whether you are eligible for Graduate Access Melbourne.
- If you are applying for multiple courses, ensure you have confirmed your preference order.
2. Gather your supporting documentation
As part of your application, you’ll be required to submit:
- Transcripts and detailed information related to all previous studies you have undertaken and/or completed, including an explanation of the grading system used and official certified English translation of any document that is not written in English. View further information about supporting documentation.
- Evidence of meeting the University's English language requirements.
3. Submit your application
- To get started, begin your application here.
If you are eligible for course entry, you will receive an email with your personal login to the Master of Biomedical Science Project Database (Sonia) with currently available projects.
Use this database (and other resources, detailed under Entry requirements) to search for a research project and speak to prospective supervisors. This can be undertaken prior to application, or while your application is being processed.
Once you have reached a verbal agreement with a supervisor, submit your project request form via Sonia (using your personal login).
Additional application considerations:
Where a course offers both Commonwealth Supported Places (CSPs) and Australian full fee (AF) places, you only need to submit an application for one fee type. You will automatically be considered for a CSP if you are eligible.
After you apply
- All communications related to your application, including requests for additional information and application outcomes, will be sent to the email address you registered for your application. To avoid delays, please upload requested information as soon as possible.
- Track the progress of your application via the Application Portal.
- Please note that the Admissions team will only contact you via email if anything else is needed; there's no need to enquire about the timeline in the meantime.
- The time it takes to assess applications can vary. If you're applying for the next intake, this will typically be 4 to 8 weeks after we receive all required documents. Future intakes (beyond the next intake) may have different assessment timelines.
