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
"Best Semester of my life. "
James R Illinois State University
"Studying abroad helped me develop an appreciation for the Scottish culture (I know it sounds generic, but it's true). Perhaps just as importantly, I realized how grateful I should be that I live in America, even with it's faults. Ultimately, I found this experience to be very humbling."
Taylor D Illinois State University
"Being abroad is a unique experience in that never would I have been able to learn what I did in Rome. I learned to see the world through a different lens and be more tolerant of other cultures and lifestyles. I can say that it changed my life and there is not a single thing I regret of the experience."
Anabella M University of Miami
"I've been able to form life-long friendships with people from literally every corner of this world. I have been exposed to many cultural differences and have learned to accept and respect them. I'm leaving Macau a much better, well-rounded person. It has given me the confidence to chase my dreams and truly believe I can do anyth..."
Andrew B Indiana University of Pennsylvania
"I was able to travel to 7 countries while being here, including Italy. In these countries I saw all types of people and experienced all types of different cultures. My rating for this school is 5 stars because I met a lot of new people here and the environment at the school is great. "
Alyssa A LIM College
"This study abroad experience has changed my life forever!"
Janine L Illinois State University
"It was the best decision of my life! Taught me so many life skills and gave me amazing self confidence. "
Sydney R Illinois State University
"It was everything I could have imagined "
Andrew S Illinois State University
"I learned patience and I have more respect other cultures. I also learned not to judge quickly about a persons culture. "
Caroline C Illinois State University
"It was not worthwhile. I feel if I chose a different university in England I would have enjoyed it much more. I am very angry with University of Leicester for making my study abroad experience difficult."
Katie K Illinois State University
"it was completely worthwile. however, for some its just a party and so classes and the whole purpose of being there can get jumbled. for me, i felt like my classes were lacking the usual pace im used to back home which affected my performance in school. however, being there has made me acutely aware of multiple and diverse cultu..."
Hannah P Illinois State University
"This taught me how to manage money, become more independent, and gain respect for foreigners in the US. I just want to travel for the rest of my life!"
Megan W Illinois State University
"Yes"
jalyn D Providence College
"I became more comfortable speaking Italian, and traveling alone. The program definitely expanded my cultural awareness; for the most part I didn't experience much culture shock moving from NY to Rome, but there are some differences I had to get used to."
Elizabeth e American University
"I don't consider myself a feminist but I despise the way boys and men treat women in this country. It is shocking how many men don't trust their girlfriends to go places alone or the appalling cat calls a girl receives which walking innocently on the street. At times here I felt more like a piece of meat than I did a real person..."
Gretchen H Indiana University of Pennsylvania
"."
Trevor S University of California - Riverside
"Yes "
Rachel W Lynn University
"It was definitely a good way to learn the Spanish language. Learned a lot about a new culture and getting around on my own. This has raised my cultural awareness and let me get a great start on my Spanish Minor. "
Lauren K University of Northern Iowa
"I pushed myself out of my comfort zone--since the program did not facilitate too much cultural immersion, I sought out opportunities myself. I had a great experience, for example, when I joined a salsa class by myself that was taught in Hebrew to Tel Aviv University students. I also enjoyed my classes and made an effort to get t..."
Ariella C Tufts University
"Yes, looking to go back for grad school."
Kawin C University of California - Riverside
"Loved it!"
Alex P Kansas State University
"more confidence on my spanish "
Menelik M Southern University - New Orleans
"My study abroad experience was extremely worthwhile. In taking classes outside my major, I realized that my career path belongs in business (I had previously considered law school) and that I am, in fact, eager to begin my accounting job upon return to the United States. I am also grateful to have had the opportunity to experien..."
Katherine B University of the Pacific
"Although I didn't have the academic experience that I was hoping for here, I'm still very glad that I chose this program, and would absolutely choose it again. I have learned a lot about the benefits of a slower pace of life, much needed for me, and how to interact with people who think very differently from myself."
Sarah G University of the Pacific
"This whole experience was very worth while. I learned a lot about myself, about other cultures perspective of the US, and about alternative lifestyles than that one I led back home. Studying abroad will challenge what you think you know about yourself, and will shape you into a better and more understanding person."
Matt J University of California - San Diego
