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
"It's certainly changed my outlook on the world and broadened my mind."
Kevin P Illinois State University
"It changed the way I viewed the world because I met people from all over, living simple, peaceful lives, pursuing their dreams. I had been considering the military when I went, but upon my return I decided that there was more to life and that I was not ready to commit to something like that. I wanted to keep traveling and see ..."

"This opportunity is the one I'm the most happy that I took advantage of. I learned how independent and responsible I can be.

It sparked my interest for learning about other cultures too, I'd love t..."

Anthony M Illinois State University
"It was more than worth my while. It's something that I'll never forget, it's opened my mind, inspired my dreams, and allowed me to gain confidence in myself and know myself better as a person.

Tierra T Indiana University of Pennsylvania
"To just be able to study outside the US and in a foreign country was enough for me. I was very dissatisfied with the academic aspect but loved everyting else.

"I learned that life does not need to be taken so incredibly seriously like Americans take it.

I now keep an open mind about everything and find my se..."
