Melbourne Institute of Technology Australia (MIT) is an Australian higher education provider with two city campuses (Melbourne CBD and Sydney CBD). You’ll see popular study areas like Business/Accounting, IT/Networking, and Engineering (Telecommunications), plus some English language programs. MIT is registered with Australia’s higher education regulator TEQSA and has CRICOS registration for international students (so it can deliver courses to overseas students where listed). If you’re comparing options, we suggest judging MIT on fit: course structure, campus location, support, and career services—rather than relying on “acceptance rate” or random ranking claims from third-party sites.

Scholarship | Who it’s aimed at | Value / benefit (as described) | Source |
MIT Academic Achievement Scholarship | Merit-based; not available to new students | Covers 30% of program tuition fees | MIT scholarships page |
MIT Undergraduate Second and Third-year Scholarship | Continuing undergrad students | One-unit fee waiver each trimester (MIT describes as 25% reduction) | MIT scholarships page |

Melbourne Institute of Technology Early Entry
“Early entry” gets used in two ways:
Early offer / early admission (offer before final results)
Enrol early (admin step to lock classes and access materials)
MIT’s enrollment guidance uses “Enrol Early” in the second sense.
MIT also publishes “whole-of-institution” admissions transparency notes and references “early offer conditional on minimum ATAR” as a category in its reporting tables (you’ll see this in course pages like Bachelor of Networking).
A checklist
If you’re asking about… | Do this |
Early offer | Check the admissions notes on your specific course page and ask admissions for current pathways. Then compare similar programs on PickMyUni so you’re not locked into one option. |
Enrol early | Treat it as a planning step once you have an offer—use it to secure class times. |
Intake timing | MIT lists multiple intakes across the academic year—plan around your availability and document timelines. |
Melbourne Institute of Technology acceptance rate
MIT does publish admission criteria (academic + English requirements; age notes for domestic/international) but we have not seen a single official “acceptance rate” figure presented as a reliable annual metric on MIT’s official pages.
What matters more than an “acceptance rate”
What to check instead | Why it helps |
Course entry requirements | Clear pass/fail gate for eligibility |
Intake dates & application timing | Helps you plan around deadlines |
Your background fit | Credits, prerequisites, English results, work history (if used) |
If you want, share your current qualification + target course with PickMyUni and we’ll help you sanity-check options and course-transfer routes across multiple providers.
Melbourne Institute of Technology Ranking
For “Melbourne institute of technology ranking”, here’s what PickMyUni generally sees students run into:
Big global ranking tables often focus on research-intensive universities and may not list smaller specialist higher education providers as separate ranked entities.
Random blog rankings can be inconsistent and may confuse “MIT” institutions.
