Care experienced and estranged students
All students should be able to learn and enjoy student life, whatever their personal identity or circumstances.
We work closely with Student Support Services to ensure that students have access to additional help, support or guidance if required, as we know that coming to university without the support of family can be challenging.
NTU can provide students with accommodation for the entirety of their studies, including during summer vacation.
If you think you need any additional support, or want to let us know that you're care experienced, estranged or at risk of becoming estranged, please get in touch. We have a dedicated member of staff who will be happy to guide you through the process.
For more information on the support that the university can offer for care-experienced and estranged students, please visit the dedicated support for care leavers and estranged students page.
Help with providing a guarantor
We have partnered with Housing Hand, which is a third-party guarantor company, to help students find a guarantor.
If you choose to live in private accommodation, you may be asked to provide a UK guarantor; this is someone that agrees to pay your rent if you fall behind. Sometimes, it's not possible to complete a booking for accommodation without providing a guarantor.
We understand that not everyone is able to provide a guarantor, so NTU has partnered with Housing Hands who can act as your guarantor. Apply for NTU care leavers and estranged students support.
Please note, by following this link, the application will be slightly different. You will not be asked to provide a co-signature as the University will provide that for you.
NTU and UPP accommodation does not require a guarantor.
