Concurrent Enrollment

Consortium Agreement / Concurrent Enrollment

A Consortium Agreement is a contract between two colleges/universities that recognizes a student's combined enrollment for financial aid purposes. If you are interested in attending two different higher education institutions at the same time, please review the guidelines below.

Please be advised that a Consortium Agreement will not be processed for students receiving a UTEP Academic Scholarship, on a SAP Academic Plan, receiving Paydirt Promise or TPEG-I funds, using a state exemption such as Hazlewood, or already enrolled full-time at UTEP. In addition, Consortium Agreements are not accepted for the summer term at UTEP.  

 Guidelines:

• A completed Consortium Agreement must be submitted electronically to UTEP before the first day of the semester.
• As the home school, students may only receive financial aid from UTEP.
• If any financial aid has been awarded at the host school, the student must request that the host school cancel ALL financial aid for the attending semester.
• Only undergraduate students enrolled at least half-time (6 credits Fall and Spring) at UTEP are eligible to submit a Consortium Agreement.
• The student must complete a new Consortium Agreement for each semester of concurrent enrollment.
• The courses taken at the host school must be transferable to a student's UTEP degree program in order to receive financial aid and must be approved by the student's UTEP Academic Advisor.
• All courses that are approved in the Consortium Agreement will be considered as part of UTEP’s Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) calculation.
• Payment arrangements must be made with the host school as UTEP will not send funds directly to the other institution.
• Final grade transcripts for the semester must be submitted from the host school to UTEP's Office of Admissions immediately after grades are posted at the end of the semester.
• A Consortium Agreement can only be processed after the student’s financial aid file at UTEP has been completed.
• Incomplete forms will not be accepted or processed.
