You can search through this website for Australian programs for finance. Here's the resulting list:

Melbourne's got a good reputation as well!

But as far as I know, you always need to take the GMAT or GRE for Masters programs. And tuition fees could possibly be covered by some scholarships.

Also, I believe a lot of programs in Australia are one-year MBAs, which makes the cost cheaper since you complete it quicker.

Yes, most of the best MBA schools, even in Australia, require you to take the GMAT. If you wanted to try the GMAT, the best MBA programs for finance in Australia would be Melbourne Business School (MBS) and the Australian School of Business (AGSM.)

If you are still resistant to taking the GMAT, you can look at Macquarie School of Management (MGSM), which has no GMAT entry requirements.

When you say no GMAT entry requirements at MGSM, do you mean you don't have to take it at all, or they have no required grade to be accepted? I thought you must take the GMAT for all MBA programs, worldwide.

Why don't you just take the GMAT? If you get into a school where all the students have decent quantitative skills, then you'll learn more about finance.

Duncan is right. The GMAT is a worldwide standard, so it's good to take it and broaden the opportunity for all schools. Plus, if a program has GMAT requirements, then you know it has average standards about the students it accepts and the curriculum.
