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
"Yes I learned something new every day. I now want to return to Europe as soon as possible. "
Brandon S University of Southern Maine
"Most certainly!"
Gabriel B Ithaca College
"The most important understanding I gained from this is independence. I often cater to what I think I should want, to what I feel would be best for others. It's important to care for others, but I cannot care for others to the best of my ability if I'm not truly doing what I love. I came to understand this by rejecting what peopl..."
Connor A Illinois State University

Ericka K Kansas State University
"Overall, The experience at York was amazing. You get to enjoy the night life if you want to but you can also stay away from that if that is not what you like. There is a lot of history in this small city and a lot of local businesses like restaurants, pubs, etc. "
Raymundo C Hope College
"Absolutely. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat, even though I don't have any money left. The knowledge and experience I've gained have made me into a better person."
Rachel A Illinois State University
"I think it's important for everyone to study abroad somewhere. Canada suited my needs perfectly. Not only that but my roommate was French and she had friends from Spain, Portugal, and Belgium to name a few. I got to meet so many amazing people from all over the world and my only real regret is that I only speak English. "
Mandy F Pittsburg State University
"I realized that many cultures, although they may seem different, are actually very similar to the U.S, or more specifically, the Midwest. The experience also reinforced my experience that, in many countries, people's view of the United States is based largely on negative images in the media and from Hollywood movies. I learned..."
Stephanie N St. Cloud State University
"VERY worthwhile. I gained an appreciation and respect of other cultures that I didn't have before. Studying abroad has made me want to work overseas in the future. "
Lauren B Illinois State University
"It was an outstanding experience. It is what you make it. Don't rely on the administrators to walk you through having the best time abroad. You have to do it yourself."
BABAK A Pepperdine University
"The international study experience was extremely beneficial as I acquired knowledge and information abroad which could not be taught in any classroom. The quality of education was a little behind my US university, but as a whole I felt I learned more during this semester than I ever have. I have a new perspective of the world ..."
Zachary S Illinois State University
"Learned cultures from all over the world. Made friends that I will cherish forever. "
Derek B St. Cloud State University

Meghan E Pepperdine University
"I loved my abroad experience so much that when I graduated from college I moved back to Puebla for another two years. While I was abroad, I learned another language and I fell in love with another culture. This has impacted the career and personal choices I have been making. "
A student Oberlin College
"I gained knowledge about England and Ireland. "
Kristen P Illinois State University
"My academic focus has always put an emphasis on East Asia and I feel well-equipped and determined to continue that focus. I felt well-prepared before going to China. The program took good care of me as I adjusted and learned cultural nuances. And, I had a good experience that unfortunately was too short."
Aaron L The College of William and Mary
"It was without a doubt worthwhile. I hope I have the opportunity to return to Rome one day. I learned so much about the Italian culture and language while I was there. We made Italian friends, so beside learning about the culture we had the opportunity to live in it. I definitely feel more mature and well-rounded after living in..."
