This study examined pressure consolidation of amorphous $Al_{2}O_{3}-15\hspace{5mm}{mol\%}\hspace{5mm}Y_{2}O_{3}$ powders prepared by co-precipitation and spray pyrolysis. The two amorphous powders had similar true densities and crystallization sequences. Uniaxial hot pressing was carried out at $450^o-600^oC$ with a moderate pressure of 750 MPa. The co-precipitated powder could be hot pressed to a maximum relative density of $98\%$ and remained amorphous. Pressure adversely affected the densification of the spray-pyrolyzed powder by favoring an early crystallization of $\gamma-Al_{2}O_{3}$ phase at $580^oC$. Plastic deformation of the amorphous phase is believed to be responsible for the large densification of the amorphous powders.
