Hi! What do you guys do if a couple apply for your rental unit, one of them has a great credit score, and the other one doesn't?

I have an objective score sheet. I score each individual in a variety of areas (length of employment, rent:income ratio, credit score, etc) and then I combine the scores of the individuals to get a group score.
