How to apply to study at Flinders

View information for international students

Looking to advance your career or want a different path? We have a range of postgraduate courses to help you realise your full potential.

Many of our postgraduate courses are nested, meaning if you enrol in a masters and do not complete it – but do complete the nested graduate certificate or graduate diploma – you may exit with that qualification.

 Step 1  Choose your course and check your eligibility

Midyear entry

If you are applying to study Master of Psychology (Clinical) or Doctor of Medicine, Flinders University will handle the entire process.

Choose the course you are interested in and find details about what you will study and entry requirements.

Most graduate entry bachelor degrees, graduate certificates and graduate diplomas require a three-year undergraduate degree from an Australian university or equivalent.

 Step 2  Review your finances

All our courses list indicative fees.

Postgraduate coursework courses are either Commonwealth-supported or fee-paying. Please note, that full-fee-playing places may still be deferred to your student HELP loan.

Specific information for fees is available on the course information pages.

 Step 3  When to apply

Important dates for postgraduate admissions are course-specific. Our course information pages show individual course admission intakes.

Visit SATAC to find information on commencement date options, relevant closing dates for applications, and the timing of offers.

Your course fees

Commonwealth Support

All our courses list indicative fees but as an undergraduate student your course is Commonwealth supported provided you’re an eligible Australian citizen, New Zealand citizen or permanent resident.

Your course being Commonwealth supported means that your course fees are shared between the Australian government and you – with your portion being the student contribution amount.
