The Macquarie Leaders and Achievers Early Entry Scheme opened last term. Applications for round 1 have closed, but we are still accepting applications for round 2 until Thursday, 31 August.
Students should apply by the final deadline on 31 August to be considered for an early entry offer.
KEY DATES FOR MACQUARIE LEADERS AND ACHIEVERS
Round 2 applications close: 11:59pm, Thursday, 31 August
Round 1 outcomes released: Monday, 4 September 2023
Round 2 outcomes released: Thursday, 28 September
Tips when advising your students:
- Students should diversify their preferences. We recommend choosing a range of degrees with varying entry requirements by using published selection ranks as a guide.
- Students should not include brand new activities or examples in their reflection that aren’t previously described in their 2-3 example activities. The reflection should only focus on the activities already provided.
- Students need to be more detailed when indicating their tasks and responsibilities and not just supply a general role description.
- Referees for activities must be carefully chosen. We recommend placing a supervisor or leader that can confirm their involvement; and discourage placing parents (unless working in a family-owned business), friends or themselves as referees.
As always, activities provided must demonstrate leadership skills, personal development and dedication through extracurricular activities (see examples) and students need to double-check all parts of their application before submitting. No changes can be made afterwards.
You can still book an early entry workshop for your Year 12 students. Email us at schools@mq.edu.au to request a Macquarie Leaders and Achievers Early Entry workshop

Did you know we are ranked number 1 in the world for Climate Action?
We are pretty proud of this, but we don’t take this lightly and are always looking at new ways to do better. This year we are slashing the amount of traditional printed materials used at Open Day. You’ll have on the spot digital access to our flyers, and if you speak to any of our team they can directly email you a flyer and any notes shortly after the event. This way you get all the info you want. And if you wish to take a printed copy with you, there will be print-on-demand stations available on the day.
