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.

"Very worthwhile. The academic experience of working independently, but alongside other photography and art students, was great, and I feel I developed my artistic intent and abilities immensely.

A student Wellesley College
"I have a new impression of Asia different from the noisy, messy view I held from childhood trips to my family home years ago. The ease of transit throughout most major cities in the continent, along with the friendliness and honesty of the locals I ran in to from not just SG but other countries in the area have made me want to b..."

"I really enjoyed my experience at NUS, as I was able to learn a completely new language (Arabic) and master my Chinese skills. Through my courses, I also learned about the everyday lives of Chinese Singaporeans through the personal, intimate stories of real people, which helped me better understand Singapore's culture and histor..."
A student Brandeis University
"I gained a fluency in French that I would not have gained if I had exclusively studied the language in a classroom. I also gained a completely new perspective on how people live and what they value as a result of the traveling I did. This was not directly done through the program, but it was an inadvertent effect of it because I..."
