Medical schools in other nations where Australian students are considered domestic students

New Zealand

Australian citizens are treated as domestic student in New Zealand and vice versa, i.e. pay subsidized much lower fee and pay subsidized much lower fee and entitled to student allowance or welfare payments and domestic scholarships.
New Zealand has 3 universities with medical education, but 6 'schools'/campuses of medicine. Only 3 applications are needed – 1 each to these universities. University of Auckland and University of Otago admission for those who passed high school, whereas University of Waikato is for those have a bachelor's degree in any discipline and wish to pursue medical education.A. Undergraduate entry pathway for those who passed high school: Both Auckland and Otago teach the initial three years of the course in Auckland and Dunedin respectively and both schools include 'rural immersion' programmes as an optional part of their clinical curricula. After these first three years, Otago students are assigned to complete their degree in either Dunedin, Christchurch, or Wellington; whereas Auckland students are assigned to adjacent hospitals and teaching schools on a short-term basis with some teaching remaining in Auckland. Prior to the opening of the University of Auckland Faculty of Medicine in 1968, Otago had had a branch faculty in Auckland.

* 1. University of Auckland teaches medicine
* 2. University of Otago Medical School
B. Graduate entry pathway to admission in basic medical doctor degree for those who already have a bachelor's degree in other discipline:
*3. University of Waikato's new medical school, the New Zealand Graduate School of Medicine will begin its first student intake in 2028. Admission criteria: New graduate-entry medical school will not only admit those who already have an MBBS. Instead, the term "graduate-entry" means applicants must have a prior bachelor's degree in any field of study to be eligible to apply. Applicants need a completed bachelor's degree from a recognized university, likely with a minimum B-grade average or GPA threshold. You do not need a specific science degree or a prior medical degree to apply. Graduates from humanities, arts, or any other discipline will be eligible. Applicants will need to achieve a passing grade in the Graduate Medical School Admissions Test, which is a standardized test assessing a broad range of skills including science, social science, and written communication. An interview process is also part of the selection criteria to assess aptitude and commitment to primary and rural healthcare in New Zealand

Medical education for Australians in other nations

Fiji

Fiji does not treat Australian citizens as domestic students. Australian citizens do not pay significantly less than other international students for medical school in Fiji. They are charged the full international/regional fee rate, which is the same as citizens from most other countries outside of the specific "Pacific Islands Forum Countries".

Fee:
* Fiji Citizens: Pay the lowest, most subsidized domestic fees.
* Citizens of Pacific Islands Forum Countries : Pay an intermediate "regional" fee.
* Citizens of Other Countries : Pay the highest international fee rate. Fee is around FJD 32,000 per year which is much lower than the fee international students pay in Australia.
Medical colleges in FIJI with 6-year Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery
* Fiji National University at Suva city
* University of Fiji at Lautoka city

Other nations

Australians are treated as foreign students and pay non-subsidised fee as international student. Some countries like Germany or Norway offer free or nearly free tuition for all students, including Australian and other international students, although admission to their medical programs is extremely competitive and may require local language proficiency. Many Commonwealth of Independent States, Philippines, China, etc. have some of the lowest fee and cost of living in the world for the medical education. Graduates from all these nations' universities need to pass additional country-specific tests for each country to be able to practice in those countries, including Australia or other developed nations such as Singapore, USA, Canada, UK, etc.
