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
"Living abroad is the best thing I have ever done in my life. It opens up your personal world in so many ways. It helps you become more confident and willing to try bigger challenges. It also teaches you so much about other cultures, which in return, helps you reflect on your own culture. You can make friends that will last a lif..."

"In so many ways. Beyond becoming apart of the Chinese cultural environment and greatly increasing my Chinese speaking abilities, I got close to people I would never have met, became interested in places I would never have thought and did things I never could have done at home. "
Matthew L Southwest Jiaotong University
"It was so wonderful. I've made so many friends and gotten to know myself so much better because of it. It set me back on the path I wanted to follow and the feeling I've been trying to recapture about my approach to my life goals. It was a solid experience from a solid program. "
Deanne N Rice University
"I feel as though the experience is what you put into it. If you are looking for an American style experience in which you feel comfortable it is there, or you can stretch yourself and live in the city. Whatever you are looking for, it is there."
Benjamin H Middlebury College
"Yes it was. The friends that I made will stay with me forever, and the 3 weeks i spent there was the best in my life. I learned that without jumping into circumstances that are out of your comfort zone, you will definitely have regrets. "

"I learned a lot about international business. I also got to experience a whole different university life.

"I gained valuable experience being an adult, an individual, and a scholar. The French student work ethic was inspiring. The level of competence and knowledge that the professors had was highly refreshing and inspiring as well. "
Cody O The University of Texas at Austin
"It was definitely worth my while. What I loved the most was how Alcala is located in the center of Spain so we could go in any direction and get to another city in a reasonable amount of time for a weekend trip. And the professors were all about going out and seeing the world and they themselves were world travellors who gave us..."

Shannon M The University of Texas at Austin
"It was definitely worthwhile for me. I took classes I would never have taken at UT (I am an engineering major) and I really challenged myself academically that way. I wouldn't say it has changed my academic plans, but studying a different kind of thing improved my work ethic and attitude toward studying. "

"I became an adult, because I had no choice. I had a truly unique and unforgettable experience."
Miles B Tulane University
"I definitely recommend students studying abroad, especially those who have lived in Hawai'i for a while. I have noticed that those of us in Hawai'i, live in our own culture and lifestyle, that it was hard at first to adjust to the realities of Seoul, S. Korea. It has given me the opportunity to actually experience what really go..."
Rachel N University of Hawaii - Manoa
"My situation with my school made it impossible for me to do a full semester abroad. But the summer was perfect. I was able to do some valuable work towards me degree all while taking in the marvelous Italian culture and lifestyle. Italy gave me an appreciation for some of the things we have here in the states and other times hav..."
Thomas G Shenandoah University
"Japan really has a lot of culture embedded into their society so it's interesting to compare it to the American way of life. It was overall a very good experience. My eyes were open and I received a more realistic view of what Japan was really like. I think my original concept is that Japan is like a dream world, but when it com..."
