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.

"Overall, I'm glad I got to go to Europe. I learned a lot about myself and others. However, if I were to do it again, despite my fears, I would have gone by myself or with a small group--certainly not twenty others! I felt very smothered in such a large group. However, I had a great time traveling by myself, especially in Amsterd..."

"Oxford is the best academic experience I have ever had. It provided me with a much broader and, at the same time, deeper understanding of my subject, challenging me to exceed my limits every step of the way. It revived my interest in chemistry and consolidated my conviction that graduate school is the natural next step for me. ..."

The real sources of language learnin..."
