History

[edit]

The primary ICMS campus is situated on Sydney Harbour's North Head on St Patrick's Estate. It is located in the "Manly Castle", which formerly housed a seminary.[4][5] The ICMS campus was used for exterior shots of Gatsby's mansion in the 2013 film adaptation of The Great Gatsby.[6] Their second campus is located in the Manning Building, right in Sydney’s business district.[7]

ICMS was one of the first six private universities included in the Universities Admissions Centre application process in 2012.[2]

ICMS has been noted to be a significant contributor to the Northern Beaches economy and in 2018 ranked first in graduate employability in the event management and hospitality management sectors among Australian colleges.[8]

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, ICMS boosted scholarships and bursaries for domestic students after losing a significant portion of its students, who traditionally were international students.[9]
