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 wouldn't say that my study abroad experience has changed my future plans. It did however, make me realize how similar Ireland is to the US. All those stereotypes about the Irish just aren't true and it was very easy to make friends with the locals."
Kaitlin B Longwood University
"It was awesome. It was good to see academics from a different country. I made lifelong freinds there."
Francesca A Clark University
"Yes it was definitely worthwhile. I will probably never again get the opportunity to travel all over Europe and visit a variety of countries in the same time period. I am much more aware of different cultures and customs. I also feel I am a seasoned traveler at this point and can navigate any train station or airport alone. My a..."

"It hasn't changed my plans but I have a new appreciation for German culture and media. I would like to keep the language skills I have acquired and improve on them. "
Shu-Yen W Wellesley College
"The study abroad experience was definitely worthwhile. I met a lot of new people and made new friends. The experience was once in lifetime and I am very happy that i chose to do it. Regarding future plans, I could actually see myself working and living abroad."
Kaan G SUNY - Binghamton
"Singaporeans are just as smart as Americans, but will get paid half the salary. In indonesia, you can hire a servant for 200 per month. You get get a computer programmer, for 400 per month, and the best programmer for 2000. This means, 30 thousand in Indonesia is like 150,000 in America. In Cambodia, a policeman will be your tou..."

Rebeka M The University of Texas at Austin
"It could not have been better. Even though there are certain things I could have wished for while there, I am 100% content with my year abroad and would not change anything; it's only left me with more of a desire to do other things and have new experiences."
David F New Mexico State University
"It was more than worthwhile. I learned so many valuable things as far as my studies and just about people and life in general. I met so many great people and when so many amazing places. I cannot imagine the regret i would feel if i never did this."
David K University of Hartford
"It was a great experience. I met a lot of people, learned a lot of different things about the culture and myself, and had a blast!"
Sharon B Spelman College
"Looking back, I should have spent more time paging through books or hitting the stacks. Although I didn’t make the dean’s list or honor roll, I would say that studying abroad is the best place I’ve ever taken my academic career, but largely for extracurricular reasons. The freest schedule that I’ve ever had coupled with the m..."
Victoria E Berea College
"Worthwhile indeed! I went to France in order to find independence in my life and to prove to myself that I can be uprooted from my life here and live on my own. I found independence and I learned so much more about the culture than any textbook could teach me! I learned to step outside of my comfort zone and take a look around a..."
Michael M University of Northern Colorado
"The people that I met and the friends I made, whether they were part of the program or local students, made the experience worthwhile. Being open to ideas and experiences that I had not planned on, were actually what made the experience that much better. "
Janelle A University of Arkansas - Fayetteville
"Studying at the University of Botswana was an incredible eye-opener. I learned a new language, met new people, and gained insight into a culture completely different from the ones I had been familiar with previously. It was unbelievable, from the food, to the music, to the misunderstandings, and more. I cannot imagine having spe..."
Katrin P University of Maryland - Baltimore County
"No change in plans or interests, but it did give me independence, patience, and improved Spanish (from traveling around Spain, not from Barcelona)"
Morgan D The University of Texas at Austin
"I absolutely adored my study abroad experience and would do it all over again in a second if I could. I gained a stronger sense of independence and confidence that I still carry with me as well as friends from Australia whom I still keep in touch with. My time in Adelaide was seriously four of the best months of my life and I ..."
sadie s The College of William and Mary
"I used to always think that I worked better under stress, I've learned here, that that is untrue. If I could go back in time to graduating high school I would have applied to ENSBA it's 500 euro a year to go there people. COME ON! My future plans are to graduate SMFA and come back to France find a simple job possibly WOOF and ..."
Margaret C SMFA - School of the Museum of Fine Arts
"I think as my trip winds down, although, I have not had the perfect study abroad experience, it has been worthwhile. I think I learned a lot about myself, and it has made me grow. "
Jean C The University of Texas at Austin
"My study abroad was most definitely worthwhile! I hope to study or live abroad in the future. While this was my second time studying abroad for a longer period of time, I still feel like I became more culturally aware. (My last time was in a smaller town whereas this time was in a big city.) I lived a semester as a "German stude..."
Kiira H Oklahoma State University - Stillwater
"I had an amazing time and have made friends with people all over the world. The time I spent in Malta was the best time of my life. I learned so much more outside of the classroom that I believe is much more important than anything I learned in school there."
