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

2. Gather your supporting documentation

As part of your application, you’ll be required to submit:

  • Your APS assessment (if your degree was completed outside of Australia)
  • Your personal statement
  • Two referee reports submitted online by your referees.

3. Submit your application

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.
