What discounts does MedEntry provide?

MedEntry offers various discounts:

• The group discount. Simply apply as a group of three or more, and all group members will receive a discount of over 25%!

• The Teacher/Principal/Lecturer discount. This discount is available to students who are nominated by their teacher, principal or lecturer.

• Past student discounts. This discount applies to students who enrolled in a MedEntry package in the previous year.

Please read the information below for more information on each of these discounts.

How does the group discount work?

When you click 'order now' under the platinum package, you will be taken to a page that requests which type of purchase you would like to make. Click on 'Group Platinum'. This will take you to a page where you must enter the names of the other members of your group. All group members must pay within three weeks.

Please note that each member of your group must place an individual order via the website, and must pay individually. If you wish to pay together, each group member must still place an individual order, and select 'money order' or 'cheque' as the method of payment. When sending the combined money order or cheque, please include the names of all the group members.

Please note that while all members of the group need to purchase the platinum package, the date and location of the workshop can vary between group members.

Please note that group discounts cannot be obtained retrospectively, that is, if you purchase the Standard Package and later find a group, you will not be able to obtain a Group discount / refund.

How does the past student discount work?

If you are a student who has done MedEntry's 2009 Diamond, Platinum or Distance Package, you will be able to purchase the 2010 Platinum or Distance Package at a discounted rate.

To obtain this discount, please email us with your first name, surname, last year's purchase ID and a brief message.

Please note that you will need to put through a new order and receive a new MedEntry reference number for your enrolment to be processed.

How does the Teacher/Lecturer/Principal discount work?

If you wish to apply for this Bursary, please ask your Teacher, Principal or Lecturer to write to MedEntry with reasons why you should be awarded the scholarship. This must be on a school/university letterhead. The letter must be addressed to the Scholarships Officer at MedEntry.

The reasons why you should be awarded the scholarship may include the following:

- Academic scholarships, awards or achievements
- Co-curricular excellence (eg. leadership)
- Social/financial disadvantage

Please ask your teacher to mail the documentation to:

Scholarships Officer, MedEntry, PO Box 445, Fawkner, Vic 3060, Australia.

Note: only one student per school is eligible to obtain this Bursary.

If you are to be awarded a bursary, MedEntry will provide you with a unique discount code, which can be used on the website to access the package at a discounted rate (60% off).

How else does MedEntry help disadvantaged students?

MedEntry recognises that students from rural and remote areas face special difficulties in accessing services. To help redress this, MedEntry offers workshops in Mildura, located in rural Victoria, Whyalla and Mount Gambier. If there is sufficient demand, MedEntry will run workshops in other rural, remote and regional areas.

Why doesn’t MedEntry offer two year deals?

MedEntry does not believe in 'two year deals' for several reasons:

  • A one year program is sufficient if you are in Year 12. We believe in the efficacy of our program.
  • If you are in Year 11, we strongly recommend you do not purchase a two year program and lock yourself in. Why purchase a two year package when you do not know the quality of the materials?
  • We are so confident in the quality of our services that we know you will come back to us in the event that you need to re-enrol in a UMAT course. Those who offer two year deals do so because they know students will not come back to them, due to the poor quality of their services.

Note that if you wish to re-enrol in a MedEntry course for another year, we offer a substantially discounted price for past students.

Access to MedEntry's materials is for one "UMAT-YEAR"  i.e. from July one year to July the next. If you enrol in late July when you are in Year 11, you will have access to the materials while you are in both Year 11 and Year 12.
