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 grew up so much because I was put in the most independent situation of my life. I learned more responsibility and also learned to try so many new things and enter into new experiences. Granted, there were problems with my academic experience and the system was hard to figure out, but every single other part of my time in Londo..."

Melissa B Tulane University
"My study abroad experience was absolutely worthwhile. I learned how to be more culturally sensitive and open to people of different backgrounds. I also got to improve my skills in Spanish and meet really great people, who I can keep in touch with or visit again when I go back to Europe."
Abby C SUNY - Binghamton
"Studying abroad was one of the most rewarding, enriching, and memorable experiences of my life. I made friends that I will hopefully forever remain in touch with. Saw sites that instilled a sense of awe, and a desire to travel the world to see more. Learned about a culture that I thought was exactly the same as America, but actu..."
John A Tufts University
"The experience was definitely worth while. I learned so much Chinese, and yet I learned so much more. I started to learn the culture. I know The Subway station and how to get around Beijing better than I do Trinity and I have been in San Antonio for two years now. I learned how to live and accept a different culture, and I reali..."

Andrew K The University of Texas at Austin
"The experience was worth while, even though It was hard moving to a country that I did not know anyone. I was able to backpack the east coast, made new friends and saw incredible places I would have never gone to. It was really eye opening, especially living on a student's budget. I would recommend going to Australia to a lot of..."

Becky S Maryland Institute College of Art
"My study abroad program gave me the desired reprieve from school that I desired. I had a lot of fun, meet some cool people, and fell in love with Japan all over again. While I wish there was less English in my daily life, I still managed to improve my overall Japanese language skills. Further exposure to Japanese history and lit..."
Andrew L The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes, it was completely worthwhile. Not only did I learn a ton about Spain and the Spanish Language, but I learned heaps about myself too. I had to pull myself together in tight situations and saw what I would do in fun ones too. It was a great experience."
Jennifer J Oregon State University

Laurel J The University of Texas at Austin
"My experience in London just made me love Europe all the more. I've always gained great inspiration from Europe and it's history and culture, and I got to experience it so much more studying there. The museums and sights are endless! It helped reassure me that Fashion was a good route for me to take in life as well. "
Cobby R University of Wisconsin - Madison
"It was very worthwhile. It made me a stronger person and it showed me that I could do something that I never thought I would ever do. It proved to me that dreams do come true. It made me aware of other places like Toledo. It's amazing what's out there. There is a whole world out there. And I want to see it all!"
Sandra D University of Southern Mississippi
"I feel incredibly more aware of the world and the people in it. it's so easy to think we exist in a vaccuum. but what we dont realize is that at the exact moment, students are also studying in Australia, and eating in Brazil, and sleeping in Norway (or whatever). we are all people and i think it's so important for people to rela..."
Jessica T The University of Texas at Austin
"There are so many different people and culture that I'm not familiar with. One thing that I learned from this program is that I have to accept them as they are. I can't judge them based on my knowledge or value. "
Heewon K SUNY - Binghamton
"It was amazing! You gain lots of insight into both your culture and the culture of Korea. You get to do all these amazing things and you meet some really cool people from America and abroad. And the cost of living is really cheap."
Shayna Y University of Hawaii - Manoa
"I learned how to branch out of my safety zone. For a week, I talked to no one. I was homesick and wanted my life back. I watched my fellow group members go out and enjoy themselves, but I was afraid to meet new people. Then, I said, "screw it" and I embraced everything. I tried many different foods, rode on less than street lega..."
