Hi,
My name is Jake Shak and I’m trying to reach the right person in regards to being listed as a resource on the following page:
http://sites.udel.edu/gsac/student-life/
To supply your department with a little background about CampusCribz, essentially we are a one-stop shop for all your students off-campus housing needs. We give students the tools to search for a place to live, look for roommates, schedule appointments, set up alerts to see when a house matching the criteria they are looking for becomes available on the market so they don’t have to keep looking, and much more. Best of all, it’s free for students!
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns and what the next step is in the process of becoming a partner. Thanks for your time in reading this email and I bid you and your team a great day!
Best,
Jake
Jake,
We can definitely list your organization. Do you have a link to a website?
Thanks!
Hey Jaclyn,
I just noticed that you had responded to my post. The website link is CampusCribz.com.
Thanks!
