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.

"I am definitely more aware of the world outside of the U.S. Other countries have so much to offer but they are also going through a lot of issues and concerns just as we are in America. I am interested in studying abroad some more in the future, possibly in Vietnam or Germany. "
Mai Thanh B University of Hawaii - Manoa
"Yes"
Thomas W Illinois State University
"The trip was worthwhile as I was able to be a part of a totally different culture and lifestyle for nearly three weeks. I learned that language barriers are not to be intimidated by because speaking is not the only way of communicating. That was a major lesson I learned. "
Keith M Emerson College
"Although my study abroad experience was filled with less-than-pleasant incidents—particularly my frigid homestay—it was worthwhile overall. I didn’t really make many close friends (as it was difficult to form relationships with the French students and many of the Americans there weren’t very intellectually stimulating for me), b..."

"My Chinese level skyrocketed thanks to the immersion program. Living with a host family was also a life-changing experience; I am so grateful to them for hosting me. They were so kind and welcoming, and I feel like I learned so much from them and their culture."
Cecelia M Boston College
"I think it was worthwhile to go abroad. I am more sure of myself and more independent now. I also feel more aware of global issues & affairs than before. The exposure to a different culture and education system was very interesting, and I think that it's nice to see another perspective."
Jie H Wellesley College
"Phenomenal, just don't expect much help from the school. If you can study hard on your own, you will love the program."
Eric S Southwest Jiaotong University
"It was a humbling experience, because the students I was with are really exceptional, and it was a strange thing to find myself in the middle of the pack. However, it's also hurt my confidence a little bit in Physics, and I'll need to see if I'm really going to put Physics before Computer Science (my minor) in the end. It was ..."

"I am so glad that I went abroad.

I made a group of incredible friends, and I had the best time learning about many different cultures."
Averi G Wellesley College
"I gained a greater understanding of culture and difference and how to deal with differences by study abroad in Australia."
Dalton B College of Saint Benedict and Saint Johns University
"It was worthwhile because I grew as a person and experienced a completely different lifestyle. It impacted my cultural awareness because I lived in a city that believes they are more european then latino, therefore it was interesting to see why and which type of people really stuck to that. "

"I feel that after this experience, I have matured so much. Before I always relied on other people to help me do things, and now I know I can do it on my own! I have become more independent. I also feel that I have learned so much, because what I was learning in class I would see first hand. Studying abroad as made me realize tha..."
Catherine A Illinois State University
"I believe this program was perfect for me, as it gave me the opportunity to interact and become friends with many students from China, Korea, France, and America, without as much of a pressure of language barriers. It has encouraged me to pursue the Chinese Language more and also focus my career on international business rather..."
