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
"Learnt all sorts of things about myself, how other people live, think and act. Made so many amazing friends. And saw so much of the world travelling around that will definitely make me a different person for life. Definitely, definitely worthwhile."
A student University of Sydney
"I was essentially on my own for long periods of time (ex: Easter Break) so I pretty much learned How To Be An Adult. On a lighter note, I got much better at public transportation."
A student Middlebury College
"I learned to be more independent and speak up more. It was definitely worthwhile. It was the right choice for me. "
A student Brandeis University
"I learned how to integrate myself into a new culture and how to be more independent. I learned to be more laid back and to let things just happen. It became obvious to me quickly that just because two nations are different doesn't make one better and one worse; there are both good and bad to every place in the world and it's i..."
A student Illinois State University

"To read and write (all over again) and to appreciate history as an academic discipline."
A student Middlebury College
"I gained what I wanted and hoped to gain: a sense of independence, a broader view of the world, and a stronger feeling of confidence in myself and my abilities. I made good new friends and had a lot of fun traveling with old ones. It was definitely worthwhile. Having said that, I missed my family and friends every day and often ..."
Rachel D Middlebury College
"I learned about a new system of education, differences in culture, and made a lot of friends."
amy.carr.752 University of Oregon
"This experience is priceless. Every UT student needs to invest in an opportunity like this. This experience helped me grow academically and personally. It really helped me see the big picture in my life. I went to Asia alone and I had to learn to live on my own in a vastly different culture. Despite the large student population..."
A student The University of Texas at Austin

A student Wellesley College
"Independence"
Hailey L Illinois State University
"My exchange to UEA was one of the best decisions I've ever made, both academically and personally. I met so many amazing people, got the opportunity to travel to so many different places and very much enjoyed all of the courses in which I was enrolled. I learned to become a lot more independent and what it means to be a global ..."
Stephanie L University of Western Ontario

"Being abroad was very worthwhile but the program wasn't. I recommend Tel-Aviv. "
Asia M Pace University
"Experience life in Israel first hand, which is valuable because Israel is in the news so much. Experience a new culture and get some perspective. Also appreciate life in America more :)"
A student University of Miami
"This experience showed me that by delving deeply into new and different things, it is only inevitable to gain a deeper understanding of oneself. I feel as though before my study abroad, I didn't know how to fully learn or to appreciate the way that I do now. I was never able to focus, to take the time to let a book or a painti..."
Andi W Pennsylvania State University - University Park
"I gained so many memorable experiences and friends and I would do it again in a heartbeat. But more than that I felt like the life I had in Haifa was one that I want to emulate when I move back to the states. I was healthy and engaged and appreciative of all the unexpected surprises in my new environment. "
