The IMA offers a CMA Scholarship that waives most of the costs associated with earning the credential for eligible students. Through the scholarship, qualified undergraduates and graduate students receive IMA membership, the CMA entrance fee, and exam registration fees at no cost (subject to program rules). To qualify, you typically need to be enrolled in a degree program, demonstrate strong academic standing, and have your professor or academic advisor endorse you. The scholarship is one of the most underused opportunities in the CMA world — if you’re a student reading this, ask your professor about it and check the IMA’s student resources page. It’s a real chance to graduate with a globally recognized credential at a fraction of the cost.
