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.

"Yes"
Stephanie Y Harvard University
"My study abroad experience was one of the best experiences of my life so far. I'm hoping that in the rest of my life I'll be able to have experiences like it, but it was so awesome that it may be hard to top. I feel so much more aware of the world and all the cultures in it. My experience guaranteed my future of traveling everyw..."
Ryan H University of Wisconsin - Madison
"I would totally do it again. It is very interesting to compare the different teaching styles in the different countries. People are very outgoing and welcoming, and willing to learn from you as well."
Sofia M Trinity University

Kauveh C Trinity University

Rebecca P Indiana University - Bloomington
"This was certainly worthwhile. My cultural understanding of Mexico was deepened, my Spanish improved (especially my academic Spanish), and my academic understanding of my field of interest is now much deeper. I also got a useful head start on my thesis research, which is already paying dividends. This experience has not chang..."
Andres U Harvard University
"I grew up a little bit while I was in Scotland. I became much more independent and learned a lot about myself. It was interesting living in a completely different country for a while and seeing how I adapted to the experience. I gained a lot of motivation from my experience, although that was also partly from backpacking through..."

"Yes. I have no doubts. It is hard to put into words everything that I learned and how I changed the first ten months I went abroad... maybe after this second trip, these fourteen months of travel and school, I will be able to communicate the change. It is a peace of mind, a confidence in myself and my Spanish language and a happ..."
Abby Y Indiana University of Pennsylvania
"Studying and traveling in South Korea opened up a whole new world. I saw and did things that I had only ever seen before on TV. It forced me to be open, excepting, and to question everything. By taking a leadership course that forces you to explore what it means to be a leader in todays globalizing world; living with a punk-l..."
Hannah P Ithaca College
"Yes"
Tarryn O SUNY Purchase
"I was enrolled a truly global university with over 160 nations represented on campus. I was exposed to people, ideas, and cultures I never imagined interacting with and I am a better person from it.
