Indicative turnaround times for course applications made directly to the University
Your application will likely be assessed more promptly if you apply for one intake and provide all the required information at the time of application. If your application is put on hold to request missing information or documents, the turn-around times listed on this page will not apply.
Current intake
| Type of course applied for | Indicative turnaround time (time to receive an outcome) |
|---|---|
| Undergraduate | 4 - 8 weeks |
| Graduate coursework | 4 - 8 weeks |
| Graduate Research | 8 - 12 weeks |
The indicative turnaround times listed above will not be relevant if the course you have applied for:
- Makes selection decisions only at set times during the year
- Requires results of admissions test that have not yet been released (e.g. GMAT, LSAT, GAMSAT/MCAT)
- Requires outcomes of auditions or interviews that have not yet been scheduled.
The indicative turn around times for the Melbourne International Undergraduate Scholarship (time to receive an outcome) is 2 - 3 weeks from when the student received an unconditional course offer.
Future intakes
If you have applied for a future intake for which selection has not yet commenced, the indicative turnaround timeframes above should be applied from the date assessment commences for that intake rather than the date you submitted your application. The following table details the month during which assessment of your application is likely to commence based on the intake applied for.
| Degree | Start year intake (Feb/March) | Mid-year intake (July/August) |
|---|---|---|
| Most undergraduate/graduate coursework degrees | August/September of the preceding year | March of that year |
