Adelaide
Adelaide
Adelaide delivers South Australia's flagship 6-year undergraduate Bachelor of Medical Studies + Doctor of Medicine (BMS/MD), anchored at the North Terrace campus and Royal Adelaide Hospital with rural placements across Whyalla, Port Lincoln, and Mount Gambier. Since 1 January 2026 it has been part of Adelaide University, the merged University of Adelaide / UniSA entity, taught through the College of Health's School of Medicine.
ANU
Canberra
ANU delivers a research-intensive 4-year graduate Doctor of Medicine and Surgery (MChD) anchored at the Canberra Clinical School (Canberra, North Canberra and University of Canberra Hospitals), with a Sydney Clinical School at Sydney Adventist Hospital and a six-campus Rural Clinical School across Eurobodalla, Bega, Cooma, Goulburn, Cowra and Young, distinguished by a Years 1-2 research project and ANU's broader research culture.
Bond
Gold Coast
Bond runs a private, entirely full-fee medical program — an accelerated 4-year-8-month Bachelor of Medical Studies + Doctor of Medicine on a three-semester calendar at the Robina campus, distinguished by two intakes per year (May + September), a full-fee structure with no BMP, and a Bond-specific psychometric selection process.
CDU / Flinders — NT Medical Program
Darwin, Northern Territory
A second, separately ranked Northern Territory entry: CDU’s three-year Bachelor of Clinical Sciences (WCSCI1) guarantees progression into the Northern Territory Medical Program, with the Doctor of Medicine delivered by Flinders University. Twelve places a year, and NT origin status is required.
Charles Darwin University
Darwin, Northern Territory
The Northern Territory’s own medical school. CDU holds AMC accreditation for the Bachelor of Clinical Science Medicine / Doctor of Medicine (SMED01) and runs it at Casuarina in Darwin, with an intake built around Territory and First Nations representation rather than a national applicant pool.
Charles Sturt (Rural)
Orange
Charles Sturt's School of Rural Medicine delivers a five-year undergraduate-entry Bachelor of Clinical Science (Medicine) / Doctor of Medicine: two largely campus-based years at Orange (each including a short rural placement), then three years across a network of nine rural clinical schools in NSW and northern Victoria, built to send doctors into regional and rural practice.
Curtin
Bentley
Curtin's 5-year undergraduate Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) trains doctors for outer-metropolitan Perth, rural Western Australia, and Indigenous communities, with placements across St John of God Midland Public, Royal Perth, Fiona Stanley, Sir Charles Gairdner, Joondalup, Peel Health Campus and Rockingham General, plus general practice and rural settings statewide via the UWA-administered Rural Clinical School of WA. Pre-interview ratio 35:35:30 ATAR:CASPer:UCAT; final offer ranking 40:40:20 ATAR:Interview:UCAT.
Deakin
Geelong
Deakin's 4-year graduate-entry MD training doctors for regional Victoria. Years 1-2 are at Waurn Ponds (Geelong) for General Entry Stream students, or Warrnambool or Ararat for Rural Training Stream students; Years 3-4 are spent at one of five Deakin Medical School sites — Geelong-Barwon, Ballarat-Grampians, Warrnambool-South West, Rural Communities, or Eastern Health in metropolitan Melbourne — and the programme is distinguished by the Rural Communities site's 12-month longitudinal Year 3 placement across nine rural Victorian locations.
Flinders
Bedford Park
Flinders offers two routes to the same AMC-accredited 4-year Doctor of Medicine: a graduate-entry MD on GAMSAT plus a semi-structured panel interview, and a 6-year Bachelor of Clinical Sciences / Doctor of Medicine straight from Year 12 on ATAR plus UCAT ANZ with no interview. Teaching is case-based and domain-organised, anchored at Bedford Park (Adelaide) and extended through two flagship regional programs — the Northern Territory Medical Program, taught at the Flinders building on Charles Darwin University's Casuarina campus in Darwin, and the South Australia Rural Medical Program, which delivers all four MD years in the Riverland and Mount Gambier — giving it unusually deep Indigenous health, rural and remote teaching networks.
Griffith
Gold Coast
Griffith delivers a 4-year graduate MD from the Gold Coast campus and the Sunshine Coast Health Institute at Birtinya — with a new Toowoomba teaching location from 2027 — and clinical placements across Gold Coast University Hospital, the Sunshine Coast Hospital and Health Service, Logan, QEII, Wesley, Tweed Valley and rural Longlook sites, distinguished by early general-practice immersion through the GP Longitudinal Program and a strong primary care and rural focus. Applicants rank a campus preference in the GEMSAS application (preferences are considered but not guaranteed, as quotas apply); BMedSci pathway entrants are not allocated to Sunshine Coast.
JCU
Townsville & Cairns
JCU's 6-year undergraduate MBBS trains doctors for tropical, rural, remote, and Indigenous communities across northern Australia, with clinical-year placements allocated across Townsville, Cairns and Mackay and rural placements in rural and remote northern Queensland, plus an optional overseas elective, distinguished by a no-aptitude-test selection model and a tropical/rural workforce mission.
Macquarie
Sydney
Macquarie offers a 4-year graduate-entry MD embedded in Macquarie University Health, which the university describes as Australia's first university-led integrated health centre and home to the nation's only not-for-profit hospital on a university campus. It is distinguished by a 12-week international clinical block at Apollo Hospital in Hyderabad, an integrated 18-month research project, an optional GP Intensive Stream, a small intake in which every place is full-fee, and a digital health and innovation focus.
Melbourne
Parkville
Melbourne offers a research-rich 4-year graduate-entry MD anchored across the Parkville hospital precinct with extensions to the Austin, Western, and St Vincent's clinical schools, distinguished by deep biomedical research integration and a teaching network spanning six metropolitan clinical schools and four Rural Clinical School sites. Note that international students are allocated only to the Metro region.
Monash
Clayton
Monash is, on its own account, the only Victorian university running both a school-leaver and a graduate pathway into the same degree - a 5-year Direct Entry and 4-year Graduate Entry Bachelor of Medical Science and Doctor of Medicine - anchored at Clayton and taught through four clinical schools: the School of Clinical Sciences at Monash Health (Monash Medical Centre, Dandenong, Casey, Moorabbin, Kingston), the School of Translational Medicine (The Alfred, Sandringham, Caulfield, Cabrini, Peninsula Health), the Eastern Health Clinical School (Box Hill, Maroondah, Angliss) and the School of Rural Health (Bendigo, Mildura, Warragul, Sale, Traralgon, Bairnsdale, Leongatha, Wonthaggi).

Notre Dame does not publish a list of named Fremantle clinical sites.. From 2024, Casper-weighted selection (NOT portfolio); the KCRMT Broome rural stream has been taking students since the 2025 intake. Domestic applicants apply through GEMSAS; Indigenous applicants, long-term Kimberley/Pilbara residents and international applicants apply direct to the University.

Notre Dame Sydney runs a 4-year graduate MD anchored at the Darlinghurst campus with placements across seven clinical schools in Sydney, Melbourne and rural NSW and Victoria — St Vincent's & Mater, Auburn, Hawkesbury, Lithgow and Wagga Wagga, plus Melbourne (Werribee Mercy) and Ballarat (St John of God), distinguished by an ethics-rich curriculum and CASPer-weighted selection.

Placements run across Royal Hobart Hospital, Launceston General Hospital, and the North West Regional Hospital in Burnie. Two things set it apart. It is Tasmania's sole medical pipeline, and it ranks applicants on ATAR first, with the UCAT-ANZ used only as a tiebreaker. There is no interview.
UNSW
