Despite EIT's human-centric approach to education, the online option of learning is inevitably more affordable than its campus counterpart.

EIT does endeavor to keep costs down and offers a number of scholarships to help students studying online and on-campus.

Students also have some flexibility when it comes to course fees; various payment options are available, and students may also defer their studies – their payments can be frozen until they are ready to re-join.

The option to defer is also useful for students who may need a little time out for family or work.

Remote and on-campus students need support, encouragement and a go-to person. Our students are supported by dedicated Learning Support Officers (LSOs) for the duration of their studies, giving them a greater chance of success. If you choose to study a diploma or advanced diploma, one person is dedicated to you for the duration of your studies. Students studying our degrees will have a committed LSO for each unit of study.

It is a common concern of students that their specific needs may not be met by an impersonal institution. EIT is determined to listen and respond to students, providing personalized attention both online and on-campus.  The interactive class sizes are capped (depending upon the subject), giving students the opportunity to ask questions and interact with other students

Every EIT graduate is automatically registered as a member of EIT Alumni. Graduates who gain the most from Alumni membership are those who put the benefits to work. They network with professional contacts, get advance notice of upcoming EIT courses and special events (and those of our partners), and receive notifications of special pricing and exclusive arrangements for technical resources.
