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.

"I learned some things about myself, as I learned about the city I was in- because it's impossible to learn about living in London without learning how well I can live in a new city. I made wonderful friendships, and it was very worthwhile. I fell in love with the city, and I do hope I can get back soon."
A student Massachusetts College of Art

chris.levine1 Pace University
"While I learned a little in the classes, just living here helped me learn a lot. Cliche as it is, living in another country for some time kicks you forcefully out of your comfort zone and that experience is amazing. It's tough, it's not what you expect, and it makes you react. For me, that's awesome, to some it scares the hell o..."

A student Truman State University
"This is an absolutely impossible question to answer. I've begun to see my life through "Pre-Ireland" and "Post-Ireland" viewpoints. I learned so much about myself, my interests, my desires, my possibilities, and my friends. I wouldn't trade it for ten sacks of diamonds. So yes, it was worthwhile - though that is an understatemen..."
A student Presbyterian College
"I gained insights into a different culture and was able to see europe. "
will.lewis.714 Presbyterian College
"I learned to be more independent and to stay on top of my academics. I did not feel that I learned as much as I could have though, simply because of the class structure. Having class once a week makes it more difficult to make connections between lectures, and it is harder to stay focused. I loved traveling, but even in Londo..."
A student Presbyterian College
"Always keep a positive attitude and go into it with an open mind, you'll get to try a lot more that way. It was absolutely worthwhile and I would go back in a heartbeat."

"Of course it was worthwhile. It may not have been exactly what I wanted all the time and perhaps I would have chosen a different program if I could have, but I have now had this experience and have grown and learned more about myself because of it. So, I can't say that it wasn't worthwhile, because it is now a part of my life. "
A student Barnard College
