MedSummit is committed to ensuring that every motivated student — regardless of where they live or their financial circumstances — has the opportunity to access world-class medical preparation. Scholarships are available for students from geographical, social or financial disadvantage, including students from rural, remote and regional Australia, and those travelling from interstate.
If you are studying or living outside a major city, we want to hear from you. We actively encourage applications from students in rural and remote communities. The students most likely to return to rural communities as doctors are the ones who grew up there. That journey deserves every advantage MedSummit can offer.
Distance should not determine destiny. That is why our scholarship program exists, and why we make it as straightforward as possible to apply.
“My family stayed nearby in case I needed anything. The fact that they could do that — and I could still fully commit to the program — made the whole trip work for us.”
— Rural student, Melbourne
Melbourne is the perfect summer destination.
Held during the Australian Open, our January program coincides with one of the city's most exciting times of year. The city comes alive with world-class tennis, vibrant festivals, exceptional dining and a relaxed summer atmosphere.
Families travelling from interstate or regional Australia will find no shortage of experiences to enjoy while their student is immersed in the program. From exploring Melbourne's renowned laneways and cafés to enjoying its parks, beaches and cultural attractions, there's something for every member of the family.
Your student gains four transformative days. Your family experiences Melbourne at its summer best.
