A consortium agreement is an agreement between two schools that allows the parent school (school providing financial aid) to recognize and pay a student for classes being taken at another institution (participating school)  in addition to classes being taken at the parent school.

Things to remember when doing a consortium agreement

• The STUDENT needs to pay the tuition at the participating school. The parent school cannot put a hold on classes nor contact the participating school to inform them of anticipated aid.
• The courses must apply to the degree or certificate program at the parent school.
• The student is responsible for providing the parent school with current enrollment status at the participating school, as well as providing grades at the close of the semester.
• These courses are subject to Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress.
• The student must be registered at the parent school prior to submitting this form.
• The consortium agreement will not be considered complete until all signatures required on the agreement are provided.
• Financial aid must be awarded at the college where the student is attending more than 50 percent of their total credits for that term.
• The student must be enrolled in at least six credit hours per term at the school awarding the aid.
