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
"I am a better student and person for having gone to Oxford. I plan to go back for graduate school. It solidified my love for academia and broadened my cultural horizons. "
Sarah M Wellesley College
"Studying abroad definitely broke me out of my Americanized bubble. A lot of Americans who havn't been out of the country treat the world like it resolves around America but studying abroad changes that way of thinking. "
Kevin K Illinois State University
"Yes. A thousand times yes. Let those words suffice for themselves. "
Anne D Austin College
"It was great. My Chinese greatly improved, I made friends, and I got to explore a very different country. I only wish I had been there longer."
Matthew G The University of Texas at Austin
"My study abroad was DEFINITELY worthwhile. It was such an experience to be in a different country for that amount of time. It was definitely a huge growing experience to travel alone, to manage a budget, to learn in a completely different educational system, and be surrounded by a new language. "
Neera I Wellesley College
"I gained so from my time abroad: confidence in myself and my ability to tackle any situation thrown at me, cultural awareness and appreciation, the ability to adapt. I see myself now as a much more fulfilled and grownup person from my time in Ireland and Europe. "
Molly Q St. Catherine University
"The biggest piece of learning I achieved on the trip was getting over the hump of believing that people don't speak English all the time. You have to learn how to say in Spanish what you want to say in English only you have to be aware it might not mean the same thing."
Matt W Edgewood College

"It was great meeting people from France and other exchange students from all over the world. Paris is a very exciting city, but also expensive so it was difficult to participate in as many cultural activities as I would have liked. I gained a lot of independence through the experience."
Julia W Wellesley College

Studying abroad was also valuable becaus..."
Carole K Wellesley College
"Definitely was worth my time and money, although if I had the chance to do it all over again in Valencia I would prefer to be at the other university school, Politecnica as it is regarded as the better university to study at and has more students studying abroad there than University of Valencia. "

"It was the best experience that I've had. Going to a developing country and learning about their development ideas, we were able to see how these development ideas need to be implemented. "
Bao T University of California - Merced
"After my study abroad experience in Buenos Aires, I feel I have both grown as an individual and as student. I am more independent and much better at taking things as they come, enjoying the current moment, and making the most of a less than likely situation. I am also more outgoing and am more motivated in school. My experience ..."
