If you typically receive financial aid, contact your home institution’s financial aid office to ask if you qualify for a consortium agreement. The consortium agreement allows financial aid to be based on your combined enrollment at both institutions.

Your financial aid will continue to be managed and disbursed to you by your home college. It is important to know that you remain responsible for paying your balance due at Owens Community College.
