Academic entry requirements
Bond states the academic benchmarks in two forms:
- ATAR: 65, using an Australian Year 12 qualification or equivalent as the Selection Rank.
- International Baccalaureate: an IB Diploma with a total aggregate score of 24.
Students in their final year of secondary school in Australia, or in Year 13 in New Zealand, can use Bond's early entry scheme. It allows them to apply for and receive an offer before they finish their studies or sit final exams.
For applicants from China, Bond lists the National College Entrance Examinations (Gao Kao) as the qualification route. For applicants from Taiwan, it lists the Senior High School Leaving Certificate (Academic Senior III).
English language requirements
Bond accepts several English tests. Two of the listed options are:
- IELTS Academic: overall score of 6.5, with no sub-score below 6.0.
- PTE Academic: overall score of 58, with no Communicative Score below 50.
Bond also accepts the TOEFL iBT as an English test option.
Tuition for international students
For 2027, the listed international tuition is:
- AUD 26,200 per semester
- AUD 157,200 for the total program
These two figures are consistent, since six semesters at AUD 26,200 comes to AUD 157,200. Bond notes that its tuition figures are a guide only. The actual fee varies with the subjects you choose and the year you enter, and the fee that applies is the one for your year of entry.
Planning notes for applicants outside Australia
Because the program has September, January and May starts, your timeline can follow your own school-leaving or test dates. The September 2026 intake is the nearest on the list. The following three run from January 2027 to September 2027.
Work out your budget from the per-semester figure and the six-semester length. Treat the total as an estimate until your subjects are fixed. All fees, scores and dates above follow Bond's published program information, and the figures Bond publishes for your intake year take precedence.
