Consortium Agreement

Consortium agreements enable Arizona State University (ASU) degree-seeking students to participate in financial aid programs while concurrently attending ASU and another accredited higher education institution. ASU reserves the right to not enter into a consortium agreement if, in the opinion of ASU's SFAO, that consortium agreement would be administratively prohibitive. Consortium agreements assist in receiving additional financial aid, not for the deferment of loans.

Financial Aid Eligibility Under Consortium Agreements

The following table shows how much you will be eligible for each type of award while under a consortium agreement. Please note that eligibility for awards marked with a * are determined only by the number of credit hours you are enrolled in at ASU.
