We’re excited to announce a new initiative that partners CORT Furniture with educational institutions to provide valuable student furniture solutions. At a time when revenue is down at many colleges and universities, we’re launching our Partner Referral Program. It will provide these important establishments with a new source of revenue from a previously untapped market— off-campus student living. There are millions of college students living in off-campus apartments and rented houses, and they require temporary furnishing options on flexible terms. This new program enables universities to connect students with solutions from CORT, while earning schools a profit for every referral. The participating school simply posts our furniture rental services listing along with off-campus housing information on the school website. The listing features a call to action that connects students to view furniture options online or speak with a CORT representative. For every student who uses this listing to access our services and secure a student furniture rental lease, the referring school will receive $75. It’s our way of rewarding the school for promoting our services. Meanwhile, students and parents benefit from the convenience of high-quality CORT student furniture rental. We’re enabling schools to provide this additional, valuable service to students. CORT provides …
