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
"Since I had already been to the country many times it was quite easy for me to fit in. I also had my own group of friends from outside the school and lots of family so they helped out quite a lot. The most I learned about my trip was how to be independent as well as learning how to grow as an individual. To me the trip was worth..."
George K Benedictine University
"I gained personal insights regarding my own capability and work ethnic. The academic rigor had pushed me to perform above what was thought as my limit."
Jiwon O Wellesley College
"I have learned a lot in many ways. The courses that I followed were really interresting and the different culture that you experience is so good to give you a broader view on the world. Maybe the best thing is the large amount of friends you make in only four weeks, you sare such a unique experience which makes you very close."
Rutger v The Hague University of Applied Sciences
"Aside from academics, I gained a lot of information on London, England and the rest of UK. It was definately worthwhile. "
A student Brandeis University
"I learned a language and how the world outside the states functions. I'm grateful for getting the chance to leave the country however I believe the clark students laid far too much for what the program specifically had to offer us. "
Kerry B Clark University - Worcester
"This was one of the greatest decision I have ever made and definitely worthwhile. I liked doing it my second semester junior year because it got me excited about going back to Texas for one more year and gave me a break. I also learned to have a better appreciation for world travel and how valuable it is to learn other cultures ..."
Jenna R The University of Texas at Austin
"self growth and confidence, and broader world view"
wonderandwanderlust University of Akron
"I gained a new world view, seeing many things differently with new open eyes. I am much more open to new cultures and ideas. It was the best experience of my life and I can't wait to travel more and experience new cultures."
A student Presbyterian College
"There is nothing quite like experiencing studying abroad for yourself. You hear stories and see photos and try to imagine yourself in that position, but once you get there, nothing is how you imagined. At first, you have to learn how to get information and orientate yourself. Then, you begin to meet people and it hits you how di..."

"I can not even explain how amazing I thought my study abroad program was, there was not a thing I would take back. If I could do it all over again I would do it in a heartbeat. I learned so many new things about myself and other cultures. It sounds so cliche when people say they've "changed," but now I totally understand it. I d..."
Olivia M Sacred Heart University
"I learned how to be independent. There was times I traveled alone and arrived in foreign countries, including when I first arrived in London. The self confidence and problem solving that I learned from study abroad will be invaluable and a boon to me for the rest of my life. "
Timothy G University of Hartford
"Studying abroad gave me a new lease on life and really broadened my horizons and expectations for myself and my own life moving forward. I wouldn't trade my experiences and friends in England for anything."
Ben A The University of Texas at Austin
"Not only did I learn about the things I was studying (photography, art history, food) but I also learned about the culture of the country my family originated from. I learned how to respect a different lifestyle. "
christina.m.micheletti University of Wisconsin - Superior
"There is nothing I have ever done that I would deem more worthwhile than studying abroad. Not only did I learn so much about a different culture, I also learned so much about myself and what I'm capable of doing out in a country on my own. "
Judi J University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire
"Seeing and immersing in a different culture and way/ pace of life."
A student University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse

A student Regent’s University London
"I've never felt more immersed in a culture that's not my own. Going home to America will be weird and difficult leaving all this behind. It was definitely worth it. "
A student Wake Forest University
"This program was incredibly worth it. Not only did I get to experience education in a non-American system, I studied at one of the top-ranking schools world-wide and was successfully pushed up to and past the academic limits I had set on myself and now have access to a large alumni network."
Allie B Clark University - Worcester
"The rolling green hills, the rain, the white sheep, the cuppa tea, the castles, the beautiful Welsh singers, the friendly people, and the simplistic beauty of Wales are all reasons why I now call Wales 'home'. I learned so much, not only about myself, but about the world and people around me. I discovered that I was capable ..."
Sarah H Presbyterian College

Krista F American College of Thessaloniki (ACT)
