Consortium Agreement

What is a Consortium Agreement?

A consortium agreement is a written agreement between two schools. This agreement allows a student to be co-enrolled at Peru State and another institution and receive Federal financial aid based on the combined enrollment at both institutions.

The home institution (Peru State College) is the institution from which the student is seeking a degree. Typically, the student receives financial aid from the degree-granting institution (the home institution). Students must be enrolled in at least 6 credits at Peru State in order to utilize a consortium agreement.

The host institution is the institution where the student will be visiting and taking classes to transfer back to the home institution.

The courses taken at the host institution must be applicable toward the student’s degree at Peru State College.

Consortium Agreement courses will be counted towards the term in which they start.
