WEB & DIGITAL
Your website is your digital front door. It’s also your back and side door.
Build a website to reflect the quality of the education you offer. Your students expect as much.
We develop digital ways to solve our partners’ problems. And if your website is a problem, it’s one worth solving. Your website is the digital gateway for students as they learn about your school—and it must meet their expectations. According to a recent report, 50% of high school seniors judge a college by its online cover, equating the quality of a school’s website with the quality of a school’s educational offerings. Is that good news or bad news?
With every site, we seek to inform, inspire, and engage your audiences while supporting and strengthening your brand.
A 5° shift can make all the difference.

KRIS HARDY | Director of Web and Digital Marketing, Messiah University
“These guys do great work! I really appreciate the extra effort they take to not only understand the project, but to truly understand us as an institution and our target audience. We recently worked with them on a website redesign. The creative direction that they brought to the table was a tremendous asset to the overall project. Unlike other vendors that I have worked with, they were truly invested in the project and wanted to see us succeed.”
NIKKI FENNERN | Executive Vice President, Judson University
“We truly appreciate the great partnership with 5° Branding as well as Campus Press! This has been a long, but rewarding process. Thank you for your leadership and guidance. Thanks also to our great Judson University team, led by Mary Dulabaum, for all of their great work. The site looks outstanding!”
ANGELA MINNIEFIELD | Senior Vice President, Advancement and Operations and COO, Charles Drew University
“CDU could not have selected a better partner than 5° to develop its new website. The 5° team went above and beyond our expectations to learn and understand the culture of our institution which led to a website that embodies our Mission to cultivate diverse health professional leaders dedicated to social justice and health equity... and showcases CDU as the place where hearts learn to heal.”
Featured Work
Judson University
As one of only a few CCCU schools with a School of Architecture and also a strong commitment to the arts, Judson University has a reputation for quality. After many years of managing content on a proprietary CMS, the new Judson site highlights the university’s unique initiatives and student experiences. Content strategy, a CMS migration, updated imagery, and extensive training for editors all contributed to a site that managed sustainably and better reflects the Judson experience.
St. Thomas Aquinas College
St. Thomas Aquinas needed their website to reflect recent rebranding efforts and provide greater prospect engagement. The new site connects students with programs and outcomes, highlights the College’s hallmark student support, and offers clear paths for prospects. From the information architecture to user experience and everything in between, the new site is a total overhaul, yielding a significant increase in conversion and engagement.
Charles R. Drew University
One of only four Historically Black Medical Colleges in the country, CDU set out to elevate their website for enrollment and branding purposes. A thorough needs assessment and discovery period resulted in the consolidation of pages, updated information architecture and a suite of new tools available to content editors. The new site showcases the innovative programs and community resources and creates clear ways to engage at all points in the enrollment process.
