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."
Amrita D Harvard University
"I gained a new perspective on the international community. Before I thought that I was fairly open minded however I was confronted with so many new things that I didn't even think of that is really expands your horizons. I plan to try to work with the diplomatic services in Japan and I really hope this experience helps me do tha..."
Andrew O University of Maine - Augusta
"When I came home from my 5 weeks studying abroad, I literally felt like a new person. I realized how much I grew in the time away. I was nervous to go, but afterwards I wished I went for an entire year. I also learned so much of the language. Prior to the trip, I could not understand half of what the teacher would say in my coll..."
Mindy C University of Maryland - Baltimore County
"I've loved Russia for years now, and living in Moscow for two months just solidified that. I love Russian culture and the Russian people, and the country just has so much history and culture--it is awe-inspiring. Winston Churchill once described Russia as "a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma" and in many ways, he's ..."
Kristin S Southern Illinois University - Carbondale
"Yes I learned alot and got to experience a whole new culture."
Christian C Harvard University
"Best experience of my undergraduate career. I did not learn that much in the actual classroom, but overall I learned more about life and the world than I did throughout the rest of college combined."
Seth C Western Carolina University
"I learned about the similarities between both the people of the country I was in, but also between the international students and myself. I felt more connected with the world. "
Carlos A Harvard University
"i learned a lot about the german culture and berlin's history. i also met students from all over the world and made lasting friendships"
Maya R Harvard University
"I greatly enjoyed my time in Scotland. The people there love their country, and love to talk about it. It was great to get to meet very kind locals who only wished that you would have a good time while visiting their country. Even though the US and Scotland seem to have very similar cultures, there were definitely differences..."
Skye B Pacific Lutheran University
"Yes!! I would have found a cheaper apartment and make sure you have enough financial aid to cover your expenses. Always have more than what you may think you need."
Corinne S University of Florida
"It exposed me to poverty I have never seen before. It convicted me to radically change how I live...more simply!"
Caitlin M Texas A&M - College Station
"I learned that not everything has to be rushed, that there are many ways in which we Americans are privileged and some ways in which we are backwards, and that you have to open your eyes and your mind to really understand yourself and the world around you. What I loved most was the friendships I made, mostly with Argentinian stu..."
Dana F SUNY - College at Geneseo
"YES! I learned way more German than I expected and became genuinely comfortable with the language. I also learned a lot about myself from living (fairly) independently in a new country. "
Danielle H Harvard University
"Cultural understandings and experience from engineers around the world."
Katherine W Texas A&M - College Station
"Yes. It changed my academic interests in that I would jump at the oppurtunity to study abroad again."
Wanda Y Texas A&M - Baylor College of Dentistry
"I really do not feel this was a worthwhile experience for me. I was lucky in that I had family and friends in the area who were able to make my abroad experience immensely rewarding, but the study abroad aspect seemed to me inadequate. In the future, when looking for study abroad, I will be sure to select a program that has more..."
Rose B Harvard University
"Yes, it showed me that I can live in another country and love it. "
Paige L Western Michigan University
"Every day I am meeting new people, trying new foods, finding new cities to travel to, all while maintaining my engineering studies at Universidad de Cantabria. Without study abroad I would have never been able to understand European culture - reading about siesta is one thing, but I didn't actually understand the importance of t..."
Bonnie S Cornell University
"Hell Yes"
Blake W Harvard University
"It was most definitely worthwhile. I got to see Cambridge in vivid detail as well as many European towns/cities, which I traveled to on the weekends thanks to a travel stipend from the Thouron Prize I received."
Phillip Y Harvard University
"It was extremely worth it. I am enamored by England and Europe, and it changed my perspective on education. "

Rachel M University of the Pacific
"I now know I can travel the world to countries where I am not familiar with the language or the culture and now have the skills to get along great.

Chanel P San Diego State University
"Yes, definitely"
James j Indiana University - Bloomington
