RMIT University International Tuition Fee Bursary 2022;- A number of continuing and commencing international students are currently unable to come to Australia due to current Australian border restrictions. To support these students with their studies, and in acknowledgment that they are unable to fully engage in campus life, we have created the RMIT International Tuition Fee Bursary.
RMIT University International Tuition Fee Bursary 2022
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 the Student Services or Amenities Fee (SSAF).
A retrospective bursary for study prior to these study periods is not available.
