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 the experience was fun."
Stephen W University of Hawaii - Manoa
"Absolutely, my perception of how cultures function outside of the US was an eye opening experience. Denmark is a perfect example of how socialism can work, which was completely contrary to my beliefs before my study abroad experience. The woman are beautiful, the city is gorgeous, the people are extremely friendly (and most of..."
Kyle S California State University - Chico
"It was sweet, tried new things, visited places I've always wanted to see, met new people."
Caleb B University of Nebraska - Kearney
"Definitely worthwhile as it made me improve my language and make new friends. It also let me see how living life on the other side of the world is like, and made me more aware of cultural differences among others. "
Chae-Ri H University of Rochester
"It was definitely worthwhile. I would do it all over again and I miss it so much!!"
Bernice B University of Nebraska - Kearney
"Yes, absolutely incredible"
Lucia M The University of Texas at Austin
"Absolutely. Going abroad was the best decision that I made in college. I wanted to go to Australia, but that didn't work out, but Israel exceeded my expectations. I became much more independent and my self-confidence grew significantly while I was abroad. I'm definitely more away of the political climate in the Middle East and n..."
Hannah L University of Rochester
"I wish I could have studied abroad for more than just a semester. I loved the city I was in and it helped me greatly in my history major and in my understanding of other cultures. It made me want to explore more options of living abroad and made me more focused on studying German history. I fell in love with Berlin and German cu..."
Kathryn R California State University - Humboldt State University
"I met the most amazing people while I was away. Don't be afraid to talk to anyone the people I met changed my outlook on life and were amazing. You need to travel while your abroad don't just stay in your host country!"
Shantel H Salem State College
"Studying abroad prior to graduation is a once in a lifetime opportunity that will help you grow as both a student and an adult. It will afford you the chance to understand life through the perspective of another culture and it will give you ample opportunity to make foreign contacts, which can be invaluable in the business world..."
Al A University of Hawaii - Manoa
"Would consider working, doing grad work in S. Africa for some time. Being there, such a different place than America, makes you realize that its all real. Everything you see on TV, hear about- the good, the bad, the beautiful- it all exists in S. Africa and if you go there, you couldn't miss it even if you hid in your room all s..."
Nathan R SUNY - Binghamton
"My study abroad experience was extremely worthwhile. It helped me to figure out a lot of things about myself and about my wants and desires. Traveling to another country and being immersed in a foreign culture will make you re-evaluate yourself and your world-view. It is an invaluable experience."
Graham N The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes, absolutely. I learned a lot about myself while studying abroad. I think I am more in touch with my true self, and necessarily more independent. It has made me realize, however, that I would not want to settle down far away from my family. "
Nidhi S Columbia University
"The opportunity to study abroad as a student was such an amazing adventure for me. I spent 4 months studying Neuroscience in Sydney, Australia and every single thing about my program exceeded my expectations, as did the location and kindness of the people who helped me along the way - both at ASC and abroad. Learning in a classr..."
AJ H Agnes Scott College
"Yes"
Emily R University of South Dakota
"Yes! The experience of going abroad made me want to travel everywhere! Seeing how other countries live was life changing and over all improved my Spanish greatly."
Megan G Shenandoah University
"My study abroad experience was completely worthwhile, but I would definitely do a different program or make sure that I was much better prepared the next time around. I was part of the reason that my experience was so frustrating and better preparation would have helped me immensely. But I still say, do it and own your experienc..."
Ashlee F Austin College
"I had a great time. I had spent time in the city of Oxford before, so the culture was not new. It was a great experience to spend such a prolonged time in a different country, though. "
Kyle B Tulane University
"This program reassured the fact that I want to live and work in Africa. The lifestyle fit mine perfectly, and things that are important here are not so important in Southern Africa. There is not an attitude of doing and accomplishing something all the time, it is important to have relationships with those around you and just enj..."
Eric D Loras College
"It was the best experience ever. I am now looking at graduate school in London."
Hannah H University of North Carolina - Charlotte
"it was worthwhile, although i experienced some tough situations it helped me grow and made me a better person. I understood a little more about Spanish culture and the people. "
Kristen Marie D SUNY - Binghamton
"Yes. My language skill improved greatly and I had a really good time immersing in the Japanese culture."
Giao Linh N Wellesley College
"I really thought the program was great. It's pretty small (there were 30 students when I was there) which means you can get more personal attention. "
Rachel G
"I learned to adjust. "
Joseph M The University of Texas at Austin
"I now feel inspired to learn Spanish as perfectly as I can. I know people all over the world. I'm compelled to experience everything I possibly can. World=Big."
