Case Study: Council of Graduate Schools helps students plan for graduate school with Simpalm

Council of Graduate Schools serves 1,000 grad students monthly with Simpalm

The Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) needed a complete redesign of its GradSense website, an outdated Drupal site that was difficult to navigate. They engaged the web design company Simpalm to modernize the platform and enhance its tools for students planning for graduate school.

Simpalm delivered a user-friendly WordPress site integrated into CGS's multisite framework on Pantheon.io. The solution included new pages, improved navigation, and aligned the site's theme with other CGS platforms. Post-launch, the revamped GradSense served 1,000 graduate students monthly, saw 5,000 aspiring students use its budget calculator, and helped students save an estimated $5,000 in tuition fees annually.
