About Us

U@MQ OFFICE

Unlike many universities where it can be a mission to find someone to help you, Macquarie has its own specialised Study Abroad Office. The Office is staffed from Monday to Thursday during term time and one of the Study Abroad Advisers is there for you to answer any questions, solve any problems, give advice, or just to chat! 

The Office also has information about work visas, tax file numbers, some travel information, and information about upcoming Student Exchange Club Events. 

A fax facility is available for students who need to fax documents back to their home institutions. 

The U@MQ Office is the primary drop-in place for any queries you might have during your program (Building C9A, level 1 next to STA Travel).
