The new financial aid initiatives will benefit undergraduates receiving financial assistance as well as those enrolled in post graduate and doctorate programs.
McDonald added that the new financial aid initiatives help to solidify the commitment of the University to ensuring that costs are never a barrier to students who are offered admission.
The University stands by this commitment, she underlined, even as the school expands and includes more Vietnamese students from lower socio-economic backgrounds.
For more information about the programs, please visit www.rmit.edu.vn/scholarships or contact the Scholarship Program Coordinator by phone (84.8) 3776 1412 or via email scholarships@rmit.edu.vn.
Moreover, from this year, she said, the University will also award scholarships in February and June for prospective students who undertake a Bachelor of Design and postgraduate programs in business, as well as for current students with high academic achievement.
Applications for 2017 scholarships must be submitted before 5pm on May 5 for the June intake and before 5pm on July 15 for the October intake.
