How to Apply

Before applying to JMI to study as an International Student, it is strongly recommended that you read the Pre-enrolment information for International Students document.  This document contains information about how to apply, entry requirements, course content, fees, policies for International Students, Overseas Student Health Care, Accommodation Options & Indicative costs of living in Australia. We also also recommend reading the How to Apply document.

Once you have read the Pre-Enrolment Information for International Students document, you can apply for entry into CRICOS approved courses at JMI.

Step 1: Fill out an application form

To apply, you will need to complete an International Student Application Form and send directly to JMI. There is a $150 Application Fee that is payable in Australian dollars. We will not commence processing your application until this fee is paid.

Step 2: Submit documents

With this application, you will need to also submit the following documents

  • A certified copy of your passport
  • A certified copy of IELTS or TOEFL-iBT test results

Once you have submitted your application, JMI will assess whether you meet the General Entry Requirements and English Language Proficiency.  If you do not meet the General Entry Requirements, you will not be able to apply for this course.  If you do not meet the English Language Proficiency, you will be recommended to take an English for Academic Purposes course to improve your English ability and will be required to re-sit an IELTS or TOEFL-iBT test.

If you meet both the General Entry Requirements and English Language Proficiency, JMI will contact you to arrange an audition.

You can audition either in person or via a video recording. Please see the “Entry Requirements” document to see what you need to perform for your audition.
