Acquisitions

During 2007, Macquarie University faced a restructuring of its student organisation after an audit raised questions about management of hundreds of thousands of dollars in funds by student organisations At the centre of the investigation was Victor Ma, president of the Macquarie University Students' Council (MUSC). Vice Chancellor Schwartz cited the need for the urgent need to reform Macquarie's main student bodies. The Federal Court ordered on 23 May 2007 that Macquarie University Union Ltd (MUUL), would be wound up.

Following the dissolution of Macquarie University Union Ltd, the outgoing student organisations were taken over by the University. In January 2008, the merged student organisation adopted the U@MQ brand.

The role of Student Representation was ultimately taken on by MUSRA (Macquarie University Student Representative Association) in 2009 with the first elections being held that year. By late 2009, the U@MQ brand was dropped in favour of the current name.
