RMIT

RMIT is committed to giving you an exceptional digital experience and as such our RMIT Open Day NextFest will be on Sunday 29 August. We are excited to bring the NextFest experience to students and families digitally, to enjoy from the comfort of their homes. On Sunday 29 August, students will be able to access on-demand course presentations, industry-led events, virtual campus tours and study area information, or join our live virtual Q&As and interactive workshops. These resources will be available on demand for students to enjoy throughout August and even into September. 

Use your experience to secure an early spot in your dream course at RMIT 

Are you a Year 12 who has experience being a leader, working with different people, showcasing your creativity or making an impact in the tech world? 

It's 2021, which means it’s time your hobbies, weekend projects and passions are considered alongside your ATAR. Through RMIT’s Early Offer program, your life experience outside the classroom can count towards your dream associate or bachelor’s degree, allowing you to be accepted on a lower ATAR and taking some of the pressure off your final year at high school.  

It’s part of RMIT's commitment to diversity and equitable learning, and it means you’ll get your conditional uni offer in September.   For more information, head to the Early Offer webpage

SNAP Resources

We've also produced a student-friendly PowerPoint presentation that outlines how to apply for SNAP and SEAS, and how these access schemes can increase the likelihood of them securing an offer from RMIT.

2022 Scholarships Opening SoonApplications for most RMIT scholarships will open on 5 August, and close on 13 October. Scholarships are primarily equity-based, and every year SNAP students are awarded a range of scholarships to help cover tuition costs, travel, accommodation expenses and learning materials. Students should apply through VTAC to be considered for scholarships, as well as applying directly to RMIT - not all scholarships accept applications through VTAC. This flyeroutlines some of the many scholarships that students can apply for. Please feel free to download this and distribute to your students.
