Consortium

Consortium of Universities

The Washington Metropolitan Area Consortium of Universities is a cooperative arrangement in postsecondary education that is designed to permit the sharing of academic resources by member institutions and to offer qualified students the opportunity to enroll at other institutions for courses not available on their own campus.

The George Washington University offers its qualified undergraduate and graduate degree students the opportunity to enroll in courses at American University, Catholic University of America, Gallaudet University, George Mason University, Georgetown University, Howard University, Marymount University, Southeastern University, Trinity College, University of the District of Columbia, and the University of Maryland—College Park.

Consortium Registration Procedures

GW degree students interested in summer courses at a consortium school must enroll through GW to receive credit at GW. Exceptions must be made in advance by the student's dean's office. All consortium registration requests and program adjustments (Add/Drop) must be processed in person in the Office of the Registrar. Consortium registrations will be processed only during the general registration period just before the start of classes. Instructions are available from your dean's or registrar's office.
