Flinders University has a considerable presence in rural and remote communities throughout South Australia and the Northern Territory.

Entry requirements

Postgraduate and higher courses usually use academic prerequisites, degree equivalence and English-language requirements.

Postgraduate entry

To be eligible to apply, applicants:

  • must hold a Bachelor degree or equivalent overseas qualification, or be due to complete a Bachelor degree or equivalent overseas qualification before commencing the course
  • have normally achieved Flinders equivalent Grade Point Average of 5.00 or above in their most recent Bachelor degree or equivalent overseas qualification
  • must hold a valid Australian Medical Schools Admission Test (GAMSAT) result (or North American Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) for international applicants) and meet minimum score requirements as stated in the MD Application Guide.
English requirement
IELTS Academic 7, no band below 7

If your current English result is below direct entry, consider the university-recognised English language pathway or ELICOS package; successful completion at the required level can usually satisfy English entry without another English test.
