Scholarships
Navitas academic merit scholarships
Navitas is committed to helping students achieve their career goals by offering scholarships to outstanding students.
The scholarship applies to 50% of the tuition fee (or part thereof) for a Navitas Diploma (Australia), UTP Stage II (Canada), 1st Year Degree (UK) program at a Navitas college or one academic semester of undergraduate studies at ACN, Curtin Sydney, Curtin Singapore or Macquarie City Campus. The scholarship applies to the last semester of enrolment. Students are liable to pay for any additional courses/subjects undertaken.
To be considered for the Navitas academic merit scholarship, students must:
1. have achieved a minimum average of 70% in their high school final year grades. Students who have completed further studies, must have achieved a minimum average of 70% in the last 12 months of their most recent studies to be eligible. Non-academic subjects including physical education, religion and languages are not included in the assessment; and
2. have achieved a minimum English language proficiency of IELTS 5.5 or equivalent; and
3. have a Letter of Offer from a Navitas college or Navitas operated university campus (must hold an UNCONDITIONAL OFFER by the application deadline) ; and
4. be a new applicant (i.e. students who are currently studying with a Navitas member are not eligible).
NB. Additional factors such as educational disadvantage, membership of a specific equity group and/or significantly adverse personal circumstances may be taken into account where the committee must differentiate between equally qualified applicants.
Students who are eligible to apply for a Navitas academic merit scholarship will be sent the scholarship application form with their Letter of Offer.
Navitas bursary
Navitas offers financial support in the form of family bursaries. A bursary applies where two or more students from the same family study with a Navitas member institution.
The first family member can be studying with a Navitas member institution at the same time as other family members or may have previously studied with any Navitas member institution. For the purpose of this bursary, a family member is defined as a brother, sister, mother, father, son, husband, wife, daughter or stepchildren.
The bursary is granted to the second and subsequent family members who study with a Navitas member institution. The bursary is equivalent to 10% of the tuition fee for one program only (ie. High School, Certificate IV, Foundation, Diploma, Bachelor degree or Master degree with a Navitas member institution) and is credited to the eligible student's tuition fee account each semester (the amount being relevant to the number of units undertaken in that semester). The bursary does not apply to additional units or repeat units that may also be undertaken.
Please note:
1. The Naivtas bursary is not applicable to English language programs or any component of an English language program offered by Navitas member institutions. Please contact the relevant Navitas member institution for more information.
The Navitas bursary applies to students studying at ACN, CIC, Curtin Sydney, Curtin Singapore, CRIC, EIBT, Eynesbury, FIC, HIBT, ICM, ICP, ICWS, LIBT, MQC, MIBT, PDIC, PIBT, QIBT, SAIBT and SIBT only.
Intake
QIBT provides the flexibility of three intakes a year in:
. February
. June
. October
If the semester suits, you may be able to fast-track ahead of other students enrolling in the traditional program (for example, if you enrol in October you could enter second year university by July the following year). QIBT also provides part-time study options for Australian students.
Please note: There is no October intake for the Dipoma of Graphic Design or Biosciences.
