Secure your graduate study
at Melbourne

As a current undergraduate student at the University of Melbourne you may already be eligible for guaranteed graduate entry.

We know how much effort is placed into completing your undergraduate studies and that’s exactly why we offer our current students the opportunity to achieve a guaranteed pathway into graduate study.

Awarded based on academic merit to domestic and international students, guaranteed graduate entry doesn’t rely on your high school ATAR. We focus on the work you’ve done here, with us.

You will have to make sure that you complete all graduate course prerequisites throughout your undergraduate studies, so it is important to check out the table below to understand what you’ll need to study for your preferred course.

Undergraduate students who meet the academic criteria must have completed an Australian Year 12 or the International Baccalaureate (IB) in Australia. You must also have chosen to enrol and start your studies at Melbourne the year after leaving school, unless you were granted a deferral by the University.

If you transferred to Melbourne from a different university during your undergraduate studies you are not eligible for a guaranteed entry pathway.
