Hi, We guarantee university accommodation to care leavers throughout their course also, but most student prefer to live in the private the sector after their first year. We can't act like their guarantor but I would support the student by liaising with their agency/landlord to find alternatives to a guarantor. This is usually paying 2 months rent as a deposit instead of one. We would assist the student through FCF to pay for this. Another option is that the student agrees to pay their rent in advance for 3 months each time they get their funding, students seem to prefer this option as they can budget better. But the support we provide is more of liaising with landlords and agents to find alternatives and not act as their guarantor I'm afraid.

Dear all, Has anyone had an issue with rent guarantors for the private sector? We have a student whose local authority say they can’t do this, and I don’t know that we can either. Have any of your institutions done this for a care leaver? We don’t have halls accommodation for year 2 & 3 students, only year 1.
