Privately Student Accommodation Policy
To help us provide safe and reliable accommodation for all our residents, Privately funded applicants are required to undergo a standard credit check as part of the booking process.
Credit Assessment & Approval
All Privately funded students (or their guarantor/parent) will need to complete a credit assessment before their booking can be finalised.
This process helps us:
Confirm financial responsibility and affordability,
Protect both the student and Apartments on William throughout the lease period, and
Secure your booking quickly and efficiently.
If you’re applying on behalf of a student, please ensure that the parent or guardian’s details are used for the credit check. This allows us to proceed smoothly with your application.
What Happens After Approval
Once the credit check is complete and approved:
You’ll receive confirmation from our rentals team,
You’ll be guided through the next steps to sign your booking form, pay your intake fee and confirmation fee.
Your accommodation for the upcoming year will be fully secured.
Our team is here to assist you with any questions about the process or documents required for the credit check.

We’re thrilled that you’re considering Apartments on William as your home while studying in South Africa!
To make sure every student’s stay is secure and stress-free, we have a few important guidelines for our international applicants:
Credit Assessment & Payment Policy
If you do not have a South African parent or relative who can assist with a local credit check, you will need to follow our international student policy.
Under this policy, we kindly require full upfront payment of your accommodation fees for the 10-month period.
This ensures that:
Your accommodation is secured for the full duration of your stay.
Both you and Apartments on William are protected throughout the lease period.
Because we’re unable to perform a standard South African credit assessment for international students, the upfront payment helps simplify the process and gives you peace of mind that your room is confirmed.
Our Commitment to You
We understand this process may differ from what you’re used to in your home country. Our friendly team is here to guide you through each step — from payment arrangements to your arrival in Pretoria.
If you have any questions or need help completing your booking, please reach out to us.

Once the lease agreement is signed and required payments (fees + confirmation fee) are made.
