How do you apply for the Guaranteed Package for Bachelor of Science or Biomedicine/Doctor of Medicine? Is it through VTAC?

Hi ThunderDragon!

It doesn't seem like the Guaranteed Package option is available through VTAC after a quick search I did. You can get guaranteed CSP entry into postgrad med at UniMelb provided you get an ATAR of 99.90+ through the Chancellor's Scholarship (as homeworkisapotato mentioned below).

I found the following information from this UniMelb website:

Quote
When you apply for a graduate professional entry course, you will be able to indicate on the application form that you are eligible for guaranteed entry.

Please note that if you are eligible for guaranteed entry to an Australian fee place in the graduate course, you can still request to be considered with the rest of the applicant pool for a Commonwealth Supported Place. For some courses this will mean that you must complete the standard entry requirements of the course (e.g. admission tests, personal statements etc.) to be eligible for a Commonwealth Supported Place, even though the entry requirements may not be necessary for guaranteed entry into an Australian fee place. For more details about how and when to apply for individual courses please visit find a course.

Keep in mind that the full fee pathway into med is quite expensive!


All the best. :)

I'm pretty sure you can get CSP through the Melbourne's Chancellor's Scholarship:

You do not have to apply separately for the Chancellor's, the uni will tell you if you meet its requirements

how much does the full fee place cost at Melbourne for a domestic student. Is this actually a viable pathway.

I think it is around $330k
