The scholarships are exclusively available to prospective students with outstanding creativity, who want to transform their ideas into design solutions through the Bachelor of Design (Digital Media), Bachelor of Design Studies, Bachelor of Fashion (Enterprise), Bachelor of Digital Film and Video or Bachelor of Design (Games).

To be eligible for this scholarship, you must:

  •  Your English result must still be within its two-year validity period on the start date of your intended intake in 2027.
• Have applied for admission to one of the following programs at RMIT Vietnam and meet the program entry requirements (conditional offer may be considered): 
  • Bachelor of Design (Digital Media)

  • Bachelor of Fashion (Enterprise)
  • Bachelor of Digital Film and Video
  • Bachelor of Design (Games)
    
• Be commencing study in the respective Bachelor’s degree program in a semester in 2027. If successful, the scholarship will only apply from Semester 3 2027 (October 2027).

The scholarship will be awarded on merit and take into account past academic performance and strength of the digital portfolio.

Applicants for this scholarship should submit 2-3 examples of their work in digital format.

These give you an added opportunity to demonstrate your skills, interests and strengths in producing creative, design or digital media content.

Your Digital Portfolio should be carefully assembled and focused on such a way as to tell us who you are and to demonstrate – through your work - your passion for creativity and design. It should not be a collection of unrelated works, and the emphasis should be on quality rather than quantity.

Your Digital Portfolio may include some of the following

• Graphic design or photographic work.
• Fashion drawings, sketchbooks or photographs of garments or prototypes.
• Video, animation or motion work.
• Sound design, remixes, or music composition.
• Interactive work (i.e. websites, apps, games).
• Synopsis of a game that you are passionate about creating (including the concept, idea, genre, and relevant drawings/designs etc.).
• Any other example of your chosen creative works in digital format.

Most importantly, your Digital Portfolio should be structured and/or narrated to explain exactly the work you are showing. It should not be left to the viewer to try and work out the content. Ultimately, your digital portfolio should portray you, and your creative accomplishments, as worthy of an RMIT scholarship for communication excellence.

Format

• The Digital Portfolio may be submitted as either one video file (maximum 3 minutes), or a collection of digital files with a total size of 30 MB or less.
• Your portfolio must contain a title page (Digital Portfolio) and clearly include your name.
• Upload your Digital Portfolio to an online platform or repository (e.g., Vimeo, YouTube, Google Drive, etc.) and submit only one accessible link (not restricted or limited access). Only online submissions will be accepted; portfolios submitted in any other format or method will not be reviewed.
• All portfolio works must be original and created by the candidate and presented in English.

To uphold your Provisional Scholarship Offer, please complete the following requirements by the specified deadlines in your offer. Failure to meet these conditions will result in the withdrawal of the scholarship.

1. Maintain Your GPA: Maintain a minimum GPA of 7.0/10.0 for Grade 12, Semester 2.
2. Submit required documents: Send your Vietnamese High School National Examination Statement of Results and Final High School Transcript - or official IB/A-Level (or equivalent) results - to your Program Advisor by 18 August 2027.
