SmarterGrads – guiding students toward informed educational decisions

Melanie Hanna and Michael Hanna, a couple residing in the USA, got in touch with the TRIARE team with a plan to simplify the college selection process for students. As Melanie works as a college professor, she understands how important it is for young people to make the right choice in the education institution.  The couple’s effort was to make it more accessible and effective for students seeking the right path for their future.

We aimed to develop an exceptional solution, empowering students to not just explore available colleges, but also to assess their strengths and weaknesses. To achieve this, we wanted to implement a feature that allows students to compare critical factors, like admission criteria, costs, degree offerings, and more.

Additionally, we took on the task of integrating a college cost calculator, providing insights into expected expenses and future income prospects.

As always, our journey began with thorough research. During this phase, we diligently sourced crucial information, organized data about American colleges, and gathered insights into students’ preferences for their educational institutions.

After defining the scope of our Minimum Viable Product (MVP), we presented several potential solutions to our clients. Guided by their choice, we transformed our concepts into captivating design blueprints, paving the way for the creation of SmarterGrads.

Today, SmarterGrads stands as a thriving entity, actively used by real students in the field of education.

SmarterGrads is designed with students in mind, providing a seamless way to explore colleges throughout the USA. Users can easily filter colleges by state, ownership, fields of interest, and desired degrees as well as use the online cost calculator.
