Fees and payments

Understand general guidelines on fees and payments.

Scam alert! Scammers are targeting university students in Vietnam with sophisticated schemes.

By accepting RMIT’s offer of admission and enrolling in classes, students are embarking on a higher education journey. As part of this commitment, students accept responsibility to stay alert about tuition fees information, payment due dates associated with their courses, and will honour the financial obligation. 

Explore the below notes that might be helpful for you as supporters for students

  • Students can view tuition fees and charges for each semester via the Financial Account tile on myRMIT. Also, they can check overdue fees, and any credit balance remaining in their account (if applicable)
  • Medical insurance is compulsory for both international and Vietnamese students studying at RMIT Vietnam. This fee is normally included in the tuition fee invoice and collected on behalf of third parties. Should your students choose to arrange their own medical insurance, evidence of insurance must be provided at least 10 days before the semester starts. Students can apply for an insurance waiver via myRMIT

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Parents may talk to students for detailed information regarding tuition fee invoices or financial-related matters. All official notices and communication, including tuition fee invoice, are sent to students via student’s email and myRMIT.

For standard courses (12 weeks of studying), the last day for tuition fee payment is Friday of Week 3 of each semester. 

For Block courses and PostGrads intensive courses, the deadline payments are as follows. 

  • Block courses: the deadline for payment is Friday of the first week of the block mode. 
  • PostGrads intensive courses: the deadline for payment is the day before the course's start date. 

All tuition fee payments by bank deposit or bank transfer need to be dated on or before the payment date. 

Students may authorise a third-party, such as their parents, to pay their tuition. Students may proactively share their billing information with parents from the first week of the semester. There are different payment methods for students and parents to choose from. Check out the details via the Payment methods page. Please note that the student’s full name and student ID (sID) must be included when making a payment.

Parents can guide students to check via the Financial Account tile in myRMIT - a student self-service platform or ask Student Connect. However, this process may take up to 3 working days (excluding the transaction date) for the payment to reflect on myRMIT. 

In addition, students will also receive an official tax e-invoice (VAT e-invoice) sent to the student email account at the end of week 6 of the semester.

An official tax e-invoice will be issued and sent to students’ RMIT student email accounts before the census date of their enrolled courses, in accordance with the current tax and invoicing regulations. If any changes are made to enrolment, resulting in a fee adjustment, adjusted tax e-invoice(s) will be issued after the census date of the last enrolled course to reflect the student’s actual enrolment for the semester.

If a student requests a tax e-invoice (VAT invoice) with company information, please submit a valid request form to the Finance and Accounting Department at least two weeks before the start of a semester or course. Learn more about Tax invoices.

RMIT offers academic achievement scholarships for current students. Please access the Academic Achievement Scholarship for Current Students page for more information and how to apply for the scholarships. Students may contact the scholarship team via scholarships@rmit.edu.vn. 

For other financial enquiries, such as extension of payment or refund requests, students may contact Student Connect.

If students have an existing medical insurance as arranged independently, and would like to request a medical insurance waiver, visit myRMIT, find the Submit Request tile to complete either the Domestic Insurance Waiver form or the International Insurance Waiver form. Supporting documents like evidence of an existing insurance should be attached in the form for review.
