Indigenous Commonwealth Accommodation Scholarships (ICAS) Mid Year

The Commonwealth Government offers a significant number of scholarships each year for Indigenous students studying at the University of Adelaide through Commonwealth income support scholarships. The scholarships are to assist Indigenous students from low socio-economic backgrounds, particularly those from rural and regional areas, with the costs associated with higher education. This scholarship is specifically for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and provides financial support for accommodation costs. The award amount is approximately $3750 total for one semester. Applicants must demonstrate financial need and provide supporting documentary evidence at the time of application, such as details of income tested Commonwealth income support payment including Youth Allowance, Austudy, ABSTUDY benefits, or other financial circumstance details.
