Microsoft currently provides its 64-bit operating system as an ISO file, installation DVD or on a USB flash drive installer. Users with a valid Windows 7/8.1 licensce can update to the Windows 10 for free, but that won't be the case for most Mac users.
The document also provides a list of Macbooks that support 64-bit versions of Windows 10:
MacBook Pro with Retina display (13-inch, Late 2012 to Early 2015)
MacBook Pro with Retina display (15-inch, Mid 2012 to Mid 2015)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012)

Before you get too excited and start jumping joy, let's mention a minor catch. While Apple installs their OS X Yosemite in the SSD partition of their hard drives, the Windows 10 will get installed in the HDD partition. This means that you may not recieve an optimal performance from your Macbook. Nevertheless hope that Apple solves this minor issue sooner than later.
