It is your right to be treated equally.
Landlords cannot treat you differently from other domestic student renters. Just because you are from another country, does not mean that you have to pay higher rent or deposits, or anything else that any other domestic student would normally not have to pay.
If you feel you are being treated differently, please contact:
