Two possible benefits
depending on your home

Depending on the studio you rent, you may receive one of these CAF benefits:

🏛️ APL — personalised housing benefit
Applies to certain approved (conventionné) homes. The amount depends on your income and household.
🏠 ALS — social housing allowance
For non-approved homes. Open to all students, subject to income. Often equivalent to APL.

💼 The Begip team helps you put together your housing-benefit application. Don't hesitate to get in touch!

Apprentices and work-study students can also claim the Mobili-Jeune grant from Action Logement, on top of APL or ALS.
