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
"The experience is definitely worthwhile, as I made some amazing friends and traveled to some amazing places. I learned more about myself and became more independent in my time abroad."
A student Presbyterian College
"To be honest, the quality of education is much higher at Brandeis University. The workload and academic pressure is stronger at Brandeis. Also, you are losing 25% of your opportunity to raise your GPA. If you are a student who wants to academically learn and do well in your school work to pursue higher education, I strongly reco..."
A student Brandeis University
"Study abroad is as much about the in class experiences as it is about what you do outside the classrooms. Study abroad gave me a more confident voice. I learned what I liked and did not like and how to go after the things I wanted. I learned it's okay to change your path in life. I met people from many places and that you meet y..."
Marcia F Wellesley College
"I learned so much about myself and the world around me. I learned how beautiful people are and that the world is not a small place. The world is something to explore. Studying abroad was definitely worthwhile."
A student Presbyterian College
"I really like America. "
A student Clark University - Worcester
"I LOVE EDINBURGH. It is my favorite city right now. Every square inch is beautiful. It's fun and has a wide variety of old and young. I loved wandering around. I also loved getting into a new university system."
Augusta H Barnard College
"My experience taught me to think about art making in an entirely new way. Though I wish I had spent my time making different pieces, I feel the knowledge I gained about contemporary art was entirely worthwhile. My italian improved. Ultimately, I received what I had wanted to from the program: art and italian. I would only wish t..."

"I took some time to travel and I learned a lot about history and culture in addition to the language skills I gained. It was completely worthwhile"
A student Middlebury College
"You learn so much about yourself and about how much more there is besides where you come from and the different types of people in the world. It was definitely worthwhile and something everyone should do! "
Megan K Iowa State University
"I learned a lot about myself, and I learned a lot about the rest of the world. I didn't realize there would be so many international students form all over the world. I barely spent any time with Americans."
Tali M Wellesley College
"I learned more out of school. About myself, other cultures, and life."
Mackenzie B University of North Dakota
"My experiences abroad cannot be sufficiently summarized in just a few paragraphs, but I'll do my best to share the highlights. Edinburgh is such a unique place and is at a pivotal moment politically (with the September 18th Scottish independence referendum coming up). As an American abroad in the UK, I thoroughly enjoyed my time..."
Leigh P Wellesley College
"It was both fun and a learning experience. The Eastern German culture is so interesting and unique."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"This was definitely a worthwhile experience. I learned so much about other cultures and met so many amazing people. It gave me a deeper insight into how other people live and view the world which expanded my own personal view. "
eliza.marks.98 The University of Texas at Austin
"I learn't all sort of things. How to move by myself in a different country, I learnt about different cultures, how to do most things by myself, etc. I loved studying abroad for the people I met and for such a fun and beautiful country but I must say that I did not like much the classes at the university. I wish they would have l..."
A student Middlebury College
"History and culture is much more significant in everyday lives than we normally notice, and in some countries more so than others. I would say I mostly gained, skills, memories/experiences, and most importantly friends from my experience abroad! Ho ha Monterrey!"
Casey D Truman State University
"It was worth it and then some. I gained close to 50 new friends and several that will be friends for a lifetime"
jake.lebowitz.5 Middlebury College
"My study abroad was about self-discovery and cultural exposure. Though I was very disappointed by the academics at HKU, I knew going in that it would be very different from my liberal arts education. At a certain point, I decided that academics would not be the focus of my study abroad and instead concentrated on meeting people ..."

"I gained the opportunity to see maybe the most beautiful country in the world."
Derek S Middlebury College
"Improved my Korean, got firsthand experience of Korean life, and ate great food. "
Ian R Middlebury College
"I mostly learned about myself and how to move to a new city and start over. I definitely think it was a great growing experience and worthwhile. It was also great to be able to travel much more easily than here in Texas. But I'd like to warn you: if you have any problems with anxiety or mental distress of any kind, it will bubbl..."
Kelsey M The University of Texas at Austin
"The tutorial system, though difficult, encouraged me to learn so much. Many of the topics I chose were very specific topics that a smaller university may not have offered, so being able to be tutored from tutors all over Oxford University was great."
A student Wellesley College
"It was mostly worthwhile for the incredible experiences I had, and the people I met. Sydney is an amazing place, it would be hard to be bored there. The classes at USYD were, of course, comparatively dull, but not bad nonetheless (some great professors)."
A student Middlebury College
"I gained a more realistic view of the United Kingdom and an opportunity to explore the rest of Europe. More importantly, I experienced physics classes taught at a significantly larger university than my home institution. The experience was definitely worthwhile in terms of my enjoyment and in my exposure to different academic en..."
A student Middlebury College
"it taught me how to be myself, and deal with struggles, like getting lost, not knowing the language, dealing with people that hard to get along with, and how to be independent. "
