I am just inquiring about how many ATAR Bonus Points Universities offer to students who live and/or attend school in Greater Western Sydney.

I believe UWS is the only one to offer th bonus points for living in greater western sydney.

It is 5 bonus points for this, and up to 10 bonus points total if you achieve certain academic benchmarks

Unfortunately I can't answer your question, but I'd highly doubt that you'd need any.

Bonus points are not determined by school (unless you go to an academically disadvantaged school)
If you live in Girraween, you'd be able to receive the 5 bonus points. You can check here http://www.uws.edu.au/informationabout/tripleadvantage/regionalbonus to see if where you live is able to receive the points.

Most other universities offer bonus points for achieving good marks, like band 5 and 6s in certain subjects if you choose a relevant degree. Not every offers bonus points:

For example, at UNSW entry to these courses can NOT be achieved with bonus points:
B Actuarial Studies and dual Actuarial Studies programs
B Actuarial Studies (Co-op)
B Commerce (Co-op)
Commerce (International)
B Information Systems (Co-op)
Combined Law
Medicine/Surgery
Optometry/Science
Psychology
Psychological Science
ADFA Chief of Defence Force Special Programs (CDFSP)

Medicine tends to be a degree which does not allow for bonus points at most universities.

I go to an academically disadvantaged school (450+) and I've been told that I receive 5 bonus points automatically. I also read it in the UAC guide.
