Whether you are domestic, international, undergraduate, postgraduate, or even studying a non-commerce degree, Our Executive Team and Sub-Committee work tirelessly to provide something for everyone!

DO I HAVE TO BE STUDYING ACCOUNTING TO JOIN ASA?

No, you do not have to be studying accounting to join ASA. We encourage and welcome students studying any discipline at Macquarie University! We have collaborated on many events with societies from all academic disciplines, such as the Macquarie Association of Computing Students (MACS) in late 2018. Our events allow you to increase your employability skills, meet qualified individuals from different industries, and help you develop a strong peer network.

HOW DO I JOIN ASA AS A GENERAL MEMBER?

You can become a member of ASA by completing our online signup form, which can be found here. ASA’s annual membership fee is $5, which can be paid at any of our events (including O-Week). You will then receive your ASA sticker which will give you access to numerous member benefits.

HOW DO I BECOME A SUB-COMMITTEE MEMBER?

ASA recruits Sub-Committee members at the beginning of semesters 1 and 2 each year. To keep track of opening dates for applications to join our team, students are advised to like and follow our Facebook page.

As part of our recruitment process, candidates must first complete an online application which can be found once recruitment opens. A select number of individuals may then progress to the interview stage, after which our HR team will contact the successful candidates.

HOW DO I BECOME AN EXECUTIVE?

Sub-Committee members who show strong commitment and capabilities in their role may progress to an Executive position in the subsequent semesters with positions being filled during our AGM at the end of each year.
