Please note that applicants of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander descent who are members of an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander community are eligible to apply for waiving of certain costs associated with their study. Based on these applications, some additional interviews will be offered to applicants eligible for the Dean's Indigenous List, which will function in the same way as the Dean's Rural List to enable us to identify Australian Indigenous applicants not offered an interview in the initial round. The faculty will contact the Indigenous Engagement Unit to confirm applications and you will be contacted by the Indigenous Engagement Unit.
