A number of international students are currently unable to attend our Australian campuses due to current Australian border restrictions. To support these students with their studies, we have created the RMIT International Tuition Fee Bursary. 

The bursary is a 10% reduction of tuition fees for full-fee paying international students who are unable to travel to Australia due to current border restrictions. The bursary is only available to students undertaking units of study from the start of Semester 2 2021 to the end of Semester 1 2022 including Spring, Summer and flexible term enrolments within this timeframe. The bursary will only cover tuition fees, it will not apply to other fees or services such as SSAF. 

You can get in touch with us for any other fee-related questions.
