CONSORTIUM AGREEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

 FOR

 YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY ALLIED HEALTH MAJORS

 

A consortium agreement should be completed if you will be taking classes at YSU and another accredited college or university simultaneously or if you are taking only community college classes during a particular semester.  A copy of your registration at your community college must accompany the consortium agreement when it is submitted to the YSU financial aid office.  The cost of attendance for your community college and YSU are added together to determine your aid eligibility.  You should submit a consortium agreement and current community college schedule each semester.

 

Once aid eligibility has been determined, any scholarships awarded by YSU will reduce your YSU bill accordingly.  Loan money would go to YSU and be used to pay your YSU bill.  Any remaining loan money is refunded to you and it is your responsibility to pay your community college bill.

 

When filling out YSU’s consortium agreement:

          --You are a degree seeking student at YSU.

          --You are a transient at your community college.

          --The parent institution is YSU.

          --The visited institution is your community college.

You may choose to go through your community college financial aid office.  It may be easier, especially if you are already in their system.  Contact their financial aid office for information on how to process their consortium agreement.
