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 greatly appreciated the culture here in Australia, and think it was worthwhile; however, the rigorous school schedule made it very difficult to be able to travel and experience the whole country. "
A student Wellesley College
"It was my first time abroad and I was more than happy to have done it. Hanyang ISS offered such a diverse, fun, and educational opportunity for me. I immersed myself in the language and culture in a place I dreamed of going to. We took fun field trips, had an international party, and more. The courses were great too and I was mo..."
Amanda S Ithaca College
"I learned to be more independent and how to navigate a city. I learned how to cook my own meals, and how to help build community through cooking."
A student Wellesley College
"I definitely learn the importance of languages as I traveled around Europe and while living on an international campus. "
Thuly T Wellesley College
"My experience abroad bolstered my confidence in ways I never expected. I had to be completely self-reliant; I had to cook for myself, make my own travel arrangements, navigate a new city and culture, and be willing to ask questions. At home, I'm surrounded by family and friends in a familiar environment; I can easily lean on tho..."

"Completely different from American universities-much less rigorous, supportive"
A student Wellesley College
"Very worthwhile-- I learned a lot about independence, solo travel, and unexpected differences in dialects of the English language."
A student Wellesley College
"Who knew one month could be so short, yet could also be so experienced to the fullest?! Four weeks in Seoul didn't seem like much at first, but somehow, HISS managed to pack in a wide variety of field trips and events alongside enriching and engaging classes, and nurtured many new friendships with students from all over the worl..."

"I would definitely reccommend studying abroad, especially for the whole year if you are going to London. It is a place that is new but still comfortable, you won't want to leave. It was only by being there the entire year that I was able to truly start to make a life there, getting an internship in fashion (a dream come true), a..."
A student Wellesley College
"Learning in a different educational system was valuable. I met some amazing people, and a few have become some of my best friends. Traveling was important and wonderful as well. I think dealing with my depression truly alone without the support of Wellesley and my friends was the hardest thing. However, learning from it was trul..."
A student Wellesley College
"I met many people from outside Canada--mostly Australians--but also students from Europe. More than academics, my study abroad was about new people and experiences. It's such a cliche, but very true."
kdilucido Wellesley College
"I experienced the italian lifestyle firsthand. Definitely worthwhile"
Stephen D University of Notre Dame
"It was one of the greatest decisions I've ever made. I feel a lot more worldly and independent after this trip. My knowledge of Italian culture has increased exponentially. My appreciation for Italian food has gone through the roof. My language abilities are much greater than they ever were. "
Antonio S University of Notre Dame
"Learned about the mafia through culture and field study. Definitely worthwhile "
abbey.fishie Dickinson College
"There is nothing quite like experiencing another country by integrating yourself and living there for an extended period of time. It was the most fun I have ever had!"
Haley E University of Roehampton
"So worthwhile! I learnt so much more about the Korean culture and other cultures as well. Exchange programs really bring you out of your shell and Hanyang is so great at facilitating activities and classes that get you involved with local students and other international students. I have never met a person who has left South Kor..."
Jessie-Zoe R University of the Sunshine Coast
"Absolutely!"
A student Indiana University - Bloomington
"Although the 6 weeks abroad were way too short, I've never learned so much during that short amount of time. Not only did I learn a lot about the Korean culture, I also learned a lot about myself. Studying abroad through Hanyang International Summer School was way more than I had hoped for. I loved my time abroad. Every single d..."
Lydia L University of Georgia
"I gained confidence in my academic abilities from studying at Oxford. I also made some amazing friends, one of whom is another student at Barnard whom I had not known previously."
Annie D Barnard College
"I improved my Japanese greatly and learned more about Japanese culture than I ever thought I would. I wished I had spent less time in a classroom and more time out exploring and meeting new people. In the future I would like to return to Japan and get that sort of experience."
A student Pitzer College
"I learned a lot about my self and became more independent having to live on my own. I also learned about the italian culture and how different areas can have such different ways of life."
kelsey.harms3 Gustavus Adolphus College
"Travelling and meeting new people from around the world was the best thing about this trip. You meet people that force you be the best you can be, and who are okay with you and love you when can't be."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned how to live on my own, to make friends with whomever I can, and to take a new or longer way home whenever possible because it means stumbling across another beautiful sight or meeting new people!"
jennifer.noyola.9 University of Notre Dame
"It was just nice to get a new experience and a break from my home university."
A student Brandeis University
"I traveled a lot which I think was the most beneficial for me. I was scared to travel on my own when I first got there but started doing my own thing and ended up doing a lot of things by myself and I feel so much more confident in myself now for being able to do that and feel like I am a new, better version of me. I think exper..."
