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
"- lifelong friends - a fresh perspective - studio art experience - philosophy on life "
Samuel J The University of Texas at Austin
"I think I learned a lot about myself and other cultures. I made a ton of international friends and was able to travel a lot. Even though the classes could have been better and the administration sucked, the experience was amazing because of the people I met and the Danish culture I got to experience."
Grace H The University of Texas at Austin
"The experience is what you make of it. "
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I love Paris. "
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"Londoners love their drink and it is very cold and dreary there. As I thought, it was a great place to travel from, but it was expensive to cross the Bering Straight. I wish I'd chosen somewhere that spoke another language for a greater adventure-- somewhere in Europe that was warmer and central to all the locations I wanted to ..."
Peyton S Baylor University
"Cultural respect, learning to live with other cultures, learning a new language, living with a large Tanzanian family was awesome. "
Rachel C Fairfield University
"I learned that people are people everywhere and there is not right or wrong way to think, live or act. It was definitely worthwhile"
diamond.barr Baylor University
"This was the best experience of my life and everyday i still find myself wishing i could go back. I made the most amazing friends and i couldn't picture my life without them in it. school was fun and i actually didn't mind going. I made some crazy memories that i still laugh about today and will probably still laugh about when i..."
vandella h Plymouth State University
"This experience taught me a lot about myself. I liked it because we were on our own for the majority of the time, so we really got to experience Ireland the way we wanted to. It was an amazing time!! There was always something to do, and there were always people who wanted to do similar things. It was awesome because everyon..."
Maria J Saint Vincent College
"Growing up in this generation as Americans we tend to live in our own little bubbles with little perspective on the world around us. Whether it be a town, a city, or an area such as New England we don't often look outside that little bubble. During my experience abroad I grew an understanding for how big the world around us real..."
nolan.mccoy.1 Plymouth State University
"I realized that I am capable of so much. Whether it's booking a trip to Prague or ordering food in Spanish or figuring out the metro in Paris, I realized that with a little practice, I can do all of that. People constantly told me they were so amazed that I lived in another country for five months, but honestly, the hardest part..."
Ashlan A Presbyterian College
"It was definitely worthwhile. I loved living on my own, even though I lived with other study abroad students and international students. I loved the culture and the the city. I loved the energy on the weekends to go out and have fun. I loved visiting towns and places outside of Dublin. I enjoyed being in Ireland during holidays ..."
Daniela R Seton Hall University
"Travel was the best part. I've heard that said a lot by others. Note that most people have a hard time the first two months. I didn't have a great time in Dublin and that's partially my fault...I didn't try as hard as I should've to make friends. But the education was bad, local students either don't care much or dislike you pre..."
Laura A Barnard College
"It was positively amazing.I learned that I am in control of my own happiness and that there is a whole world out there beside america. I dont have to necessarily live in America when I am older. There are so many different cultures that are different but amazing at the same time but at the end of the day so many people have had ..."
Tatiana V Barnard College
"Studying abroad here in Ireland has helped me gain a lot of cultural knowledge and history. Choosing to study abroad with American College Dublin has been the best decision. I made a lot of new friends and got to experience things that I wouldn't have gotten to otherwise. This trip has made me appreciate Ireland so much more. ..."
Morgan Z American College Dublin
"I gained a completely new perspective to review my entire life through. Things have never been the same since, in a spectacular way. I would not trade it for anything. Check out this video I made of my favorite adventure in China https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiOOyT4ECIc"

"I learned a lot about a very new academic environment, where the student is held to a high standard of academic curiosity and self-motivation. This independence given to students allowed me to explore my coursework on my own accord, as opposed to it being required. This helped me learn about my areas of interest and change my at..."
A student Wellesley College
"I learned a lot from this program, it was definitely worthwhile. I learned largely to be independent and get around on my own. I had to find places on my own, use the bus system, manage money and largely cook my own food. I got to know students from all over the Caribbean as well as all over the world and get to see some of thei..."
