EnglishWhere to Find Study and Application Information on the RMIT University Website
Updated
Start at rmit.edu.au, RMIT's main site. It is built around prospective students: you can browse courses and programs, compare pathway and entry options, and move into the application or "Preference RMIT" flow. The site describes RMIT as an international university of technology, design and enterprise, and as a dual-sector institution. That matters for searching, because vocational (VET) courses and undergraduate degrees sit in the same place, and vocational study can lead on to undergraduate study.
The main sections to use
| What you need | Where to go on the site | What you will find |
|---|---|---|
| Course and program information | Study / Courses area from the main navigation | Course pages with the program outline and study details |
| Pathway and entry options | Pathway options pages, linked from the study and admissions content | Vocational courses that lead to undergraduate study, plus other recognised pathways |
| Applying or preferring RMIT | "Preference RMIT" and apply/start-application entry points | The starting point for an application or for listing RMIT as a preference |
| Employer connections and industry experience | News and study content on industry experience | Descriptions of hands-on skills, industry experience and employer connections |
Finding course and program information
Use the course search rather than browsing by faculty. RMIT runs both vocational and higher-education programs, so search by the course name or by the field you want, then check on the course page whether it is vocational or undergraduate. If you are unsure which level fits you, look at the entry requirements on the course page first. That tells you whether you qualify directly or need a pathway.
Understanding pathway options
RMIT states that it is a dual-sector university offering recognised pathway options, so you can study a vocational course that leads on to undergraduate study. In practice, this means:
- Find the undergraduate degree you want.
- Check its course page and the pathway pages for the vocational or other entry routes that feed into it.
- Confirm the entry requirements for each stage, because completing a pathway course is not automatic entry unless the course page says so.
This route suits you if you do not meet direct entry requirements, or if you want a staged start with hands-on training before a degree.
Starting an application or preferring RMIT
The "Preference RMIT" entry point is where you begin if RMIT is your chosen institution. Use it together with the apply/start-application flow to move from exploring courses to submitting. Before you start, have your course choice and your pathway decision settled, because the application asks you to commit to a program. Check the course page for any extra requirements before you apply, so you do not have to restart.
Common sticking points
- Searching only one sector. If a search returns nothing, try the vocational name of the field as well as the degree name.
- Assuming a pathway guarantees a place. Treat the pathway pages as a map of options, and confirm entry requirements on the destination course page.
- Skipping the course page. The course page is where level, entry requirements and study details are stated. Use it before you apply.
Where to start
If you already know your course, go straight to its course page, then to the apply or "Preference RMIT" entry point. If you are deciding, start with the course search, then read the pathway options for the degree you are aiming at. Both routes begin at rmit.edu.au.
