How to Apply
Applications for the MBBS program must be submitted online using the QTAC (Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre) website at:
IMPORTANT:
Once you have submitted your application via QTAC, please alert us immediately because we need to make some adjustments to your application so it can progress through the system (because you won't have provided a UMAT score which domestic applicants in Australia are required to provide).What to expect after applying
If you qualify, you will be notified in the first 2 weeks of February and must attend an in-person interview on the Bond University campus during mid to late February (you must fly to Bond to attend this). If you are then accepted to the program, you will be notified in March (and then start your program in May). If you are invited to an interview, you have a high probability of being accepted.
