Melbourne Student Checklist by Orbroute

What's inside

A comprehensive, beautifully designed PDF checklist covering every stage of your Melbourne student journey — from the moment you start preparing to the moment you feel truly settled.

• Everything you need to sort before you leave, organised so nothing catches you off guard
• A sequenced checklist structure so you always know what to do next, and what can wait
• The things most students only discover they needed after they've already landed
• Covers the full picture — paperwork, money, your living situation, staying connected, and being prepared for the unexpected
• Designed to be worked through at your own pace, from months before departure right through your first weeks in Melbourne

Who is it for?

Any student heading to Melbourne — whether you're just starting to plan or your flight is in three weeks. If you've ever felt like there's a lot to figure out and no clear place to start, this is that starting point.

How to use it

Download it the moment you buy it. Save it to your phone, your laptop, or print it out and stick it somewhere visible. Work through it in stages — there's no rush, and it's built so you can pick it up and put it down as things get ticked off.

It's your quiet companion through what can feel like an overwhelming process. One checkbox at a time.

Why this checklist?

Because preparing to move abroad is genuinely a lot. Everyone around you seems either too busy to help or too far removed from the experience to give advice that actually applies to your situation. You're piecing it together from scattered tabs, outdated forum posts, and half-remembered advice from someone who went three years ago.

This checklist was made to be the thing you wish someone had handed you on day one.

Not overwhelming. Not vague. Just clear, honest, and complete.

So you can stop second-guessing and start preparing.
