Case Study: Metro State University achieves a more efficient, diverse graduate application process with Liaison GradCAS

Metro State University broadens reach to 50 states and 100+ countries with Liaison

Metro State University faced significant challenges with its fragmented and inefficient graduate application process. Using an outdated, manual system created inconsistency across programs, limited data visibility for directors, and resulted in poor communication, putting the university at a competitive disadvantage. To address these issues, Metro State partnered with vendor Liaison to implement its GradCAS centralized application service.

Liaison worked closely with Metro State to standardize the application process and integrate the GradCAS system. The implementation led to remarkable results, including a dramatic increase in applicant diversity with students applying from all 50 states and over 100 countries. The solution also provided program directors with real-time data visibility, improved the qualification of applicants, and created a more efficient workflow. Metro State University has become a model for a successful partnership with Liaison, achieving greater efficiency and a more diverse student body.
