Creating a balanced schedule

Macquarie's courses allow you to select your units so you can schedule your time around uni and other commitments.

A standard unit of study (10 credit points) at Macquarie will take approximately 10 hours of study time each week. This study time includes the time you spend in classes, online interaction, placement hours and your own independent study.

Unit waivers

If you have not satisfied unit prerequisites, you may be eligible for a waiver or special approval.
