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 got to be a part of a different part of the world. I improved my French. I really became more independent and confident in my ability to travel and navigate the world. "
A student Wellesley College
"I learned many new things, but mostly I saw how professional everyone was in the Italian culinary industry. It was very encouraging to me as I go into the restaurant management field. "
Louisa Goehringer Delaware Technical Community College
"This experience was worth more than I can even describe. It was expensive, yes, but it showed me that I want to spend my money on experiences like these: experiences that I will remember forever. I learned a lot about myself, what I am good at, and what I am able to accomplish. I learned about a culture that is very different fr..."
A student Loras College
"I learned different things to cook, the history of Italy, some of the language."
Royce Fisher Delaware Technical Community College
"100% worthwhile. "
Austin Allday The University of Texas at Austin
"I have social anxiety, so studying abroad forced me out of my comfort zone every day which i think is good experience for the real world."
A student Trinity University
"New perspectives on other civilizations. I had never been so exposed to Asian culture in that way. I traveled to many countries in Asia and their way of living is drastically different from how it's like in North America and Europe. People are pretty honest in general, have a sense of pride, aren't as hygienic or social as we ex..."
Maximo Gonzalez The University of Texas at Austin

"SO much! Cultural awareness, language, the power of a smile, the power of a frown, body language, and everything will work out!"
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"Cross-cultural experiences, travel experiences, and experience living abroad. It was the best decision I've made."
Elaine The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned that travelling and meeting new people is incredibly easy. Making friends and learning about the culture is incredibly worthwhile."
Maria Fernanda Ferrer-Hernandez University of New Mexico
"I learned that different schools have different academic systems that we should integrate into for the semester. If Middlebury does not approve of the St. Andrews grading system and translation, then Middlebury should not let students attend St. Andrews. It is unfair to deflate the grades. "
A student Middlebury College
"I absolutely loved my time at the LSE. I was pushed academically and personally, and I was able to see much more of Europe than I had anticipated. While certain aspects of the LSE's academic system--like its exam-oriented structure--were overwhelming at times, I was able to find the support I needed from other LSE students and f..."

"Italy is my favorite country outside of the United States. I enjoyed helping and seeing the other students in my group come to love the country the way I do."
BJ Reames Delaware Technical Community College
"I met Jordan, he's from Nelson. He said I can come back and visit him again some time soon. Yes, I enjoyed getting to know new people."
A student Middlebury College
"Studying at Trinity was not the most fun experience of my life, but I've come back a much older and wiser person, I think. I'm happy to be home, but I appreciate all that I learned abroad."
A student Middlebury College
"I learned an immense amount about the culture, and I found I really knew the city like the back of my hand upon leaving. I loved my classes and found it enlightening to see how European schools treat academics so differently."

A student Middlebury College
"I took care of myself more than any other time, because I had to cook for myself and take public transportation all the time, as well as planning my own travel and vacations. It was definitely worthwhile."
A student Wellesley College
"Studying abroad was definitely worthwhile and if I went back in time I would still choose to study abroad. Since I have been here I have expanded my horizons, grown in many ways, and learned more about myself then I could have imagined. "
Daniela Ventresca Oklahoma State University - Stillwater
"I gained confidence, friends and a new found appreciation for other cultures. "
