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, I learned a lot about Spanish, my culture, Chilean culture, and myself"
Marie S Western Washington University
"I believe that it was because I grew a lot personally from the experience and was forced to be truly on my own and explore the world for the first time. I was very satisfied with my experience there but in the end, I would like to go to a place where I would be forced to learn a new language while abroad."
Shalyn C Clark University
"I became a more confident and direct person."
John S Illinois State University
"YES"
sara e Tufts University
"Every penny spent and every moment awake was worth more than I could've imagined."
Brandon G Illinois State University
"I would do it again in a heart beat. If I do graduate school I will most likely go abroad again. "
Kimberlee H Illinois State University
"I could sit and talk about my study abroad experience for hours. It was absolutely fabulous. I wouldn't change a single thing about it, because each element contributed to my overall happiness. The amount of Spanish I learned even amazes me. I never thought I would come away with this great of an understanding of the languag..."

Christine O University of Hawaii - Manoa
"I had a different experience than other students because I went there already fluent in Japanese, so it was more learning how to function by myself than refining/learning a new language. Studying at Kansai Gaidai made me want to go back to Japan to teach English."
Eiji M Clark University
"Definitely worth while. The experience of meeting new people and making new friends in a foreign land is an exceptional experience and I'm making plans to do it again!"
Kelli S City College of San Francisco
"Like the cliche I chose above, at first I was a tourist and saw what i expected in my head before I came, but later I became the traveler, I learned to see the negative and positive, the reality of a city, and the daily life in another country. It taught me so much about the world, it opened my mind. It has made me more restless..."
Courtney S Illinois State University
"Two major and new understandings: 1. Though Asians may look different, we aren't that different generally. 2. The Asian continent is actually very well developed that I had ever imagined. My experience abroad had impacted my academic interest particularly in the area of peace-making. I realized practically how that more pea..."
Omowunmi S Berea College
"Absolutely. I gained global perspective, and an entirely new skill and knowledge set which I am confident will set me apart for the rest of my life. "
Michael K Illinois State University
"Yes, I am more culturally and geographically aware and I have the "travel bug"- I want to see everything now! I am more independent and able to do things more easily now because I have overcome some of my shyness. I am also very comfortable getting around strange cities now, when before I would have been very timid and not will..."

"The Thai economy is coming into its own. They are a very entrepreneurial country and offer many business opportunities for the eager young professional. Chulalongkorn University's graduate school (SASIN)is highly respected and fully accredited, and might be a nice place to continue one's studies."
Joel K University of Hawaii - Manoa

Ellen J University of Wisconsin - Stout
"I gained a new understanding of myself. I made incredible friends that are located throughout the globe. I became aware that America would always be home to me and that I like the culture/outlook on life that Americans have."
Cassandra H Nebraska Wesleyan University
"Absolutely, I wanted to stay for the year. I made many friends and saw places I would not have been able to see. I also really learned to budget and balance my money."
Vickey C Goucher College
