Planning your arrival
Things you need to do before you leave, from confirming your visa to finding accommodation, packing and booking an airport pick up.
After you arrive and have settled into accommodation there are several things you'll need to do to get ready for classes at Melbourne.
Students studying on shore in Melbourne will be required to attend a compulsory Welcome Day in person. Students studying online will receive a recorded welcome briefing. Further information will be emailed out closer to the date.
You can log in to your student account at any time, view your emails, manage your enrolment, view your timetable, exams, results, library notifications and more.
You can also pay and manage any tuition fees through your student account. As well as find out about additional orientation, events and activities you'll need to attend before you start.
