All students seeking entry to Veterinary Science at Murdoch University must undertake the Casper assessment (undergraduate version for Veterinary Science) and add Murdoch University to their distribution list, or your application may be invalidated. The Casper test is an online assessment where you will be asked to respond to written and video based scenarios.
The assessment takes between 100-120 minutes, and four testing sessions for Murdoch entry occur between March to early August 2025. You can only sit the Casper test once for your 2026 entry application. You will need access to a computer with a webcam and microphone, and a reliable internet connection. We suggest you take the test as early as possible to avoid unforeseen events, because if you miss the final test your application will not be complete and you will not be considered for entry into our course.
The assessment costs (in 2024) $59, plus $30 per institution you elect to have your score distributed to. When registering for Casper, you will be able to select Murdoch University, plus any other university where you are seeking entry into that uses the undergraduate version. Please register at least three days prior to the test date to ensure payment processing and applicant verification is successfully completed prior. You must select Murdoch University for your results to be sent directly to us by Acuity Insights, who run the Casper testing.
Applicants requiring accommodations during the Casper test (for example, due to learning difficulties) should apply directly to Acuity Insights.
Please note that all applicants to the B1402 Bachelor of Science / Doctor of Veterinary Medicine course at Murdoch University must complete the undergraduate Casper test.
