There are many other useful Macquarie links worth looking at:

  1. You’re more than your ATAR – YouTube – an easy to follow video on the Macquarie University  bonus system.
  2. Macquarie Leaders and Achievers – Macquarie University – this is not open yet, but here is the link for research. Last year our Class of 2020 had 40% of its students receive an early offer through this scheme.
  3. Macquarie Leaders and Achievers – Webinar – YouTube – a very long video about the process of applying through the Leaders and Achievers Scheme from 2020. 
  4. Macquarie University – Adjustment Factors – covers all Adjustment Factors (Bonus Points) schemes
  5. Macquarie University – Catchment Adjustment Factors – you will all get 5 bonus points from living in Sydney!
  6. Macquarie University – Big History Scheme – if you love History, you can do this course and clock up another three points. It is an online university course which they estimate takes about 20 hours.
  7. Macquarie University – Academic Advantage – specifics on subject bonus points
  8. Macquarie University Co-Op scholarship – apply online – worth $19,000.
