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 have had my eyes opened to how different the world is outside of the walls of the U.S. It has not only allowed me to see the Norwegian culture but I was able to experience culture from the people who were from the 91 other countries attending the program. My roommate was from Moscow and I was able to learn a lot from her. I ha..."
Rachael H University of Georgia
"I miss it all incredibly. The best friend I made there is still my closet friend. Everything was different, new, wonderful. Life was open. I was free.

"Yes. Anyone who has the change should study abroad."
Erin R The University of Texas at Austin

Sara B The University of Texas at Austin
"The experience impacted my cultural awareness greatly. I loved living in community with all kind of people from a lot of different places. You learn a lot about each other.

Aelim J SUNY - College at Geneseo
"Absolutely"
Alex A St. Cloud State University

Philip D The University of Texas at Austin
