Background Check/Credit Score for Non-US Citizen

Need some help here.

Just showed a property to prospective tenant who just moved here from Western Europe. She seems very interested and will probably apply. 

Problem is, I don't think anything will come up on her background check or her credit score. She has lived in the states twice, but only for short periods of time. I asked her to apply through Cozy.co. 

Do you guys have any ideas for how I could screen her well? 

I don't want to reject her just because she doesn't have an American credit score. 

She has easily verified employment at a large university near by. Upon meeting her, she is a very kind and conscientious person - the exact kind of person I want to rent to. 

Help?
