Why study at Macquarie

Our progressive approach sets us apart from other universities – and you apart from other graduates. Macquarie combines world-class education with unique opportunities to grow beyond the classroom.

I knew I wanted to study law and was therefore looking at an ATAR requirement of 95+ regardless of which university. Qualifying for adjustment factors allowed me to enjoy my final year of high school.
