gathru is the sublease network for verified students. Post your apartment, take over someone else\u2019s lease, or find a roommate \u2014 only with people whose .edu email and student ID we\u2019ve checked.
Why it\u2019s different
Facebook groups are chaos. Craigslist is sketchy. This is students only.
Where to start
Subleases + roommates first.
The pain points that are hardest to solve in scattered chats. Rentals and more come later.
After sign-in
Live listings, filters, and messaging unlock.
Browse current subleases and roommate posts, or publish your own in a couple of minutes.
What students can do
Filter by move-in window, monthly rent, and what’s already included. No more piecing it together from a DM thread.
See open spots in existing student apartments and houses, not scattered across buried group chats and spreadsheets.
Post a roommate search with budget, dates, and lifestyle preferences, and get matched with other verified students.
Right now you can list, search, and message directly. Payments and protection are landing weekly \u2014 join now to get early access.
Deposits held in escrow until move-in is confirmed. No more wiring rent to strangers.
Platform-backed deposit protection. If a sublet falls through, you get refunded within 48 hours.
Pay in any currency. Guarantor option — no SSN or U.S. credit history required.
