Direct Enrollment/Exchange is a program provider offering 1869 abroad programs. Programs offered include Study Abroad, Internship, Volunteer, Intensive Language, Gap Year, Graduate Program, High School, Research, Online Program, TEFL Courses, and Adventure Travel abroad programs in 121 countries such as Spain, International Summer Schools, Turkey, and Slovakia.
Below you will find a directory of foreign universities and reviews from students who participated in an exchange, or in direct enrollment.
In a Direct Enrollment program, students have the option of applying directly to the university they wish to attend abroad. Students can go for either one or two semesters and apply using that university's application process listed for international students. Sometimes these students are called Visiting Students, Guest Students or Free Movers. At the foreign university, they will be supported by the university's office of international students, housed with other international students and have the opportunity not only to immerse in a foreign culture, but to do so with students from all over the world.
In an Exchange, you attend a foreign university and a foreign student attends your home university, a student swap for a semester or year. Your university will handle the details of the exchange, you just need to find the ideal foreign university. Hopefully the listings and reviews below can help you down that path. You will need to contact your university's study abroad department or your academic advisor for details on the exchange because the number of valid/active exchange partners may be very limited.
Study Abroad with Direct Enrollment/Exchange
"I learned so much about myself. How I work in a larger school, a co-ed school for that matter. How much I value the outdoors and what it means to me to be able to apply what I've learned in the classroom to my leisurely hikes."
A student Wellesley College
"Adapting"
Tavishi Malaviya Wellesley College
"I learned a lot about self-reliance and cooking. You have to adhere to a budget and you have to cook for yourself and likely others. The hikes and trips with limited phone reception was a ton of fun and you had to think on your feet a lot of the time. "
A student Middlebury College
"I learned how to live more independently, how to navigate a city on my own, and how to balance work with an active social life. I was able to travel all over Europe and to learn so much about art, theater, and history just by exploring London. I am glad that I chose the LSE program as I was still able to participate in a rigorou..."
A student Wellesley College
"My experience gave me a better sense of what I appreciated about my small college (especially the smaller class sizes). It was also a growing experience in terms of learning about the people and culture, and of course, the ability to experience the natural beauty that is New Zealand!"
Disha Okhai Wellesley College
"Going to Oxford was incredibly worthwhile. I would even go so far as to say it was the best five months of my life. The tutorials were rigorous and engaging, and the one-on-one teaching/learning style was exactly what I craved. The social aspects were far from lacking; I became friends with many local students and American study..."

A student Wellesley College
"Specifically I can't name anything, but I think this program allowed for tremendous growth and made me work on my adaptability skills. I would say it was worthwhile. "
Juliana Light University of San Diego
"100% worthwhile. Learned so much about the culture and people. I always considered myself an independent person, but I think Seoul gave me an independence I didn't know existed. I am not hesitate to travel anywhere in the world. I made fantastic friends who I plan to visit later this year. Seeing how a different culture lives sh..."
A student Trinity University
"I improved my Italian. I was able to meet Americans from around the country AND local Italians. "
A student Mount Holyoke College
"new freinds, knowledge about the culture"
Rachel Gregson Virginia Commonwealth University / VCU
"I learned the reality of life in South Korea that I didn't see from dramas and it was fascinating how innovative the country is."
Dung V Trinity University
"The most important thing I would say I gained was confidence. Something about traveling abroad, on your own, and making it to the finish line unscathed is such a rewarding experience. I also learned patience in so many different forms. Most importantly, though, when understanding and being immersed within all of the different cu..."
Paige LaPlant University of Northern Iowa
"I learned how to better manage myself and my time. I was also able to become more confident in myself overall, I was able to thrive and travel all by myself for two months. I definitely think the experience was worthwhile."
Kara Brunk Saginaw Valley State University
"yes worthwhile, i learned to focus less on school and enjoy the experience from a social standpoint"
Jonathan Meythaler Falcones Middlebury College

tomas University of Texas - El Paso / UTEP
"I learned that there's so much more to the world than I've been exposed to. I also learned that sometimes when you go out and do things on your own, you grow the most. "
Emily Knuth University of Northern Iowa
"I learned so much about the traditions and cultures of Korea. As mentioned, due to the contact of international students, I also learned a lot about the world while being abroad. It was 100% worthwhile and I would not trade it for the world, if anything I would wish to extend my stay."
Lilit Gevorkyan The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned so much about the Korean culture. I had a great time. Certainly worthwhile. "

Samantha DiGiovanni Western New England University
"That I love art and Italy as much as I thought I would."
A student Anonymous University
"I learned not to be judgemental or not to have many prejudices about anything I don't know. When I stopped estimating or comparing things that surrounded me, there it appeared the true beauty of the country, people, culture."
