Consortium Agreements

Enrollment at more than one Institution

Federal law states that a student may not receive financial aid from two separate institutions at the same time. A student attending more than one college during the same semester should apply for financial aid at the school where he/she is enrolled in the greater number of units. Students in this situation may qualify for a “Consortium Agreement,” which allows the disbursing college to consider funding units of attendance at another institution. Students considering a "Consortium Agreement" need to be enrolled in 6 or more units at MJC.  MJC offers this agreement only in the FAll and Spring Semesters. Contact the Student Financial Services Office for additional information.   All courses must be added by the freeze date. 

Modesto Junior College is participating in the California Virtual College Exchange (CVC Exchange) The CVC (California Virtual College) Exchange is an innovative, student-centered tool that allows students currently enrolled in a California Community College to instantly enroll in online courses offered at eligible colleges without filling out a separate application. This gives students the ability to enroll in courses that may or may not be available at their college, allowing them to achieve their goals faster and seamlessly without needing to complete a separate application and registration processes. MJC is known as both a Home and a Teaching School for the CVC Exchange. As a result, students may count courses taken at a Teaching school and have these units count toward the units enrolled at MJC.  Students may request a CVC Consortium Agreement for Fall, Spring, and Summer terms.
