For many new students, the RMIT Course Guide is one of their first introductions to RMIT and this year, the artwork has a special alumni connection.♥️

For Ella Lockwood, scholarship support has been life-changing.​
​
It helped her move from regional Victoria to Melbourne, live closer to campus, focus on her studies and take care of her health and wellbeing.​

“These scholarships have changed my life and my university experience in ways I do not think I can fully encapsulate. I am the first person in my family to go to university, something my parents could only ever dream of. ” Ella says.​
​
In 2025, over 9,000 eligible RMIT students missed out on a scholarship.​
​
Give today to help a student in need.​
