ICMS Australia Scholarship for February 2027: Worth up to AU$20,000 for International Students

For students considering undergraduate study in Australia, the ICMS International Scholarship is a funding option worth checking for February 2027. The International College of Management, Sydney (ICMS) states that the scholarship is for new international students commencing full-time or equivalent undergraduate study at ICMS.[1][2]

The scholarship is worth up to AU$20,000. This is not an amount that every applicant automatically receives. ICMS says partial scholarships are likely when application numbers are high, and the Scholarship Board determines the award value for selected recipients.[1][2]

What may the scholarship cover?

The ICMS application document says the scholarship may provide partial tuition-fee support for study and/or accommodation, at the discretion of the Scholarship Board.[2] Do not assume it covers all tuition fees, living costs, transport, OSHC, visa costs, or all accommodation costs. Read your award notification and terms before making financial plans.

Who may consider this scholarship?

For the February 2027 period, the scholarship is for new international students commencing undergraduate study at ICMS, on campus or online according to the application document.[2] Applicants also need to meet regular ICMS entry requirements for academic ability and English-language proficiency.[2]

Study Abroad students are not eligible according to the scholarship document; the programme is intended for students completing their Bachelor’s or Master’s degree with ICMS as their home institution.[2]

Listed undergraduate programmes

The ICMS scholarship page lists Bachelor programmes across areas including:

  • Business, Accounting, Marketing, Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Fashion and Global Brand Management, International Tourism, and Sports Management;
  • Event Management and Hospitality Management;
  • Property (Development, Investment and Valuation); and
  • Information Technology, Cyber Security, and Big Data and Analytics.[1]

Programme lists and availability can change. Check the scholarship page and the page for your intended programme before applying.

How does the application work?

ICMS lists four core steps: download the application form, confirm eligibility, prepare required documents, and submit the application to icmsscholarships@icms.edu.au with the subject line “ICMS International Scholarship”.[1]

The February 2027 document says applications are assessed through the selection process implemented by the ICMS Professional Scholarship Board. Finalists need to meet academic and English requirements, and the document requests an essay submission of at least 500 words.[2] Use the essay to demonstrate motivation, study readiness, and evidence of effort, dedication, attitude, aptitude, business acumen, or relevant motivation—rather than copying a generic personal statement.

Deadline and how to plan your timeline

The listed deadline is Monday 7 December 2026; the application document states a 5 pm submission deadline for the February 2027 study period.[1][2] Start early so you have time to:

  1. choose a programme and check entry requirements;
  2. prepare academic records and English evidence;
  3. write and revise the scholarship essay;
  4. confirm the email address and subject line; and
  5. save proof that your application was sent.

This scholarship is competitive, and approval remains with the Scholarship Board. Meeting basic requirements or submitting an application does not guarantee an award. RIM Education can help you compare ICMS programmes, read requirements, and prepare application documents and a scholarship essay. Contact RIM Education to discuss your plans.

Scholarship value, deadline, eligibility, course availability, and terms can change. Always verify them on the official ICMS scholarship page and application form before applying.[1][2]
