About
As a Macquarie student, you can undertake many of our degrees on campus or online – or a combination of both. Our multimode approach offers you optimal choice and flexibility without compromising on quality. In response to COVID-19, Macquarie has a number of initiatives in place to ensure students and staff remain safe. Check the most up-to-date Macquarie University advice about COVID-19 arrangements.
The Diploma of Marketing and Media introduces you to fundamental concepts in marketing strategy, brand management and digital media production. The diploma is equivalent to the first year of an undergraduate degree. You’ll receive credit for all the units you complete in your diploma, so no extra time will be added to your degree.
If you successfully complete the diploma and meet the entry requirements, you can progress directly into the second year of the Bachelor of Marketing and Media.

Admission criteria
Applicants with recent secondary education
Guaranteed selection rank: 60.00
Alternatively, you must achieve a minimum overall average mark of 60 in the HSC exams or interstate equivalent. (Other factors, including your ATAR and other attempted studies, are taken into consideration with your average mark. Therefore, achieving the average mark does not guarantee you an offer.) Only relevant state Board-approved academic subjects are included when reviewing your average. For instance, in the NSW HSC, we will consider your results from your 10 best units from Category A and B Board Developed courses. These 10 units will include 2 units of English and a maximum of 2 units of Category B courses.
Applicants with work and life experience
If you're a non-school applicant without adequate formal education, but you have informal learning or relevant work experience, you can submit a portfolio and additional information by the relevant application closing date for alternative entry pathway consideration.
