The University of Melbourne
📍 Melbourne, Victoria • Australia
The University of Melbourne is Australia’s top-ranked comprehensive research university and a founding member of the Group of Eight (Go8). Famous for the innovative "Melbourne Model" (broad undergraduate bachelor degrees followed by specialized graduate professional master’s degrees), Parkville campus, and leading medical and biomedical research.
SAT or ACT accepted for students with US high school diplomas (minimum SAT ~1320 for Science, ~1400 for Biomedicine). Australian Year 12 (ATAR), IB Diploma (31-38 points), and UK A-Levels (AAB-A*AA) have direct guaranteed score thresholds.
Australian universities utilize a transparent ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admission Rank) cut-off model rather than holistic lottery selection. Bachelor of Biomedicine requires an indicative minimum ATAR of 95.00+; Commerce requires 90.00+; Science requires 85.00+. US curriculum: requires SAT 1320-1450+ or ACT 28-33+ with AP prerequisites.
Required for international students whose secondary education was not delivered and assessed entirely in English.
