How do u get a degree with distinction?

Refer to the Undergraduate Handbook or consult your faculty for further details.

call up (or visit personally if you have an exam at uni) your school, its differs depending on degree program, instead of asking randoms on internet

For Commerce, if you get a WAM greater than 75 over the course of your entire degree, you graduate with distinction

Pass with Merit no longer applies

Apparently for Engineering (Software)

>= 75 WAM = Graduate with Honours Class 1
>= 65 < 75 = Graduate with some form of Honours
