Graduate students of agriculture and related sciences can cross-enroll in any of the Consortium member universities. Students may take up courses or conduct their research in their chosen universities, where their fields of specialization are among the university's strengths. Units earned for courses in the host university will be credited to the student's degree program.

To facilitate exchange, UC members have prepared the necessary information for students in the Consortium Catalogs of Courses, Research, Expertise, and Faculty. These include:

• The programs of strength and potential of each university
• The university's research expertise
• The list of UC faculty, which will help students to identify their supervisors and co-advisers

Courses may be taught in English, depending on the need of Consortium students. Tuition and other school fees are paid to the study posts of the graduate students.

As of 1 February 2007, 60 grants have been awarded to students for cross-enrollment to Consortium universities to take courses or conduct research.
