Overview

The Bachelor of Clinical Sciences course is a direct pathway for CDU students to study medicine, on campus in Darwin. This course is part of a double degree with the Northern Territory Medical Program (NTMP) offered by Flinders University. Australian citizen or permanent resident school leavers with year 12 qualifications, or higher education students who have studied for no more than one year are eligible for consideration for entry.

The Bachelor of Clinical Sciences is the first award of this double degree. Completion of the first two years of the course to a specific grade point average standard and within the specified time frame, guarantees entry into the NTMP, which you will begin in your third year of study.

In your studies at CDU you will develop a strong foundation in fundamental health and medical-related sciences, building your knowledge, skills and confidence to move on to the NTMP. This course is accredited by the Australian Medical Council (AMC) as an entry pathway into medical studies.

You are eligible to apply for the Bachelor of Clinical Science if you:

  • hold year 12 qualifications and have studied no more than one year of higher education; and
  • have completed the University Clinical Aptitude Test for Australia and New Zealand (UCAT ANZ) held in July and August 2023.
In order to be competitive, you will need to achieve an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) of 90 or above, 85 for First Nations students (after the addition of any applicable ATAR related adjustment factors).

Priority is given to First Nations and NT residents. An alternative admission pathway is available for First Nations students, for more information contact [email protected]. Please note, UCAT is not required for applications under the First Nations Entry Application Process. When asked for your UCAT number (if you have not sat the UCAT) please enter ANZ00000000 while applying through SATAC. Only Australian citizens and permanent residents are eligible to apply.
