Applying to study in Australia
Year 12 Australian students can apply to study Medicine. Year 13 in New Zealand is equivalent to Year 12 in Australia. This means that, just as Australian school-leavers can apply to study Medicine, so can New Zealand school-leavers. Students are not required to do the first year HSFY, BHSc or BSc. Students will need to have completed NCEA Level 3, or are in their final year of NCEA Level 3.
