What is this? Is this a branch of the Illuminati? If so, why are they openly accepting applications?

Notice the All Seeing Eye of Horus at the top of the home page.
There is no connection between the Golden Dawn and the Illuminati, as they existed/lived at different times in history. Alister Crowleys connection to the Freemasons were limited and their practice is not widespread.
The golden Dawn was/is a religious cult(and before anyone downgrades them remember every religion began as a cult) that believes and practices The Eastern understandings of creation and manipulation of it. In a nut shell.
The All seeing Eye was adapted by the Catholic Church from the Priests of Amman in Egypt ie; the Eye of Ra, its meaning was taken from the latter Dynasties of Egypt ie; the Watcher. The Church applied the meaning of God watching. You can see examples in my thread: 2012: A Theory in Cycular Progression From there it was adapted by the Freemasons and later by the Golden Dawn as well as others.
I hope this helps.
