Sharing contest: Your Stories, Our Legacy

From a class that rewired someone’s thinking, to advice that sparked the courage to lead, to a project, club, or event that ignited a lifelong passion, your story is part of what makes RMIT, RMIT.

For 25 years, these shared stories have formed a legacy bigger than any one of us could create alone. Now, we’re inviting you to share yours:

How has our community helped students get ready for what’s next?
