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
"It was definitely worthwhile due to the people I met (many students were from other countries in Europe)!"
A student Wellesley College
"I learned a lot about physics specifically and was able to take more advanced courses than I otherwise would have. I also appreciated the chance to travel around England and to other countries in Europe. Overall, my experience was definitely worthwhile and I'd certainly do it again."
Rosemary W Wellesley College
"good"
A student Brandeis University
"A different perspective on the U.S, learned more about different cultures. I believe it was very worthwhile."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned that I'm someone that needs to chill a little bit sometimes. I tried to keep up with people that were much more intense travellers while I just wanted to focus on school and my friends and be a little more relaxed."
Kijani D Middlebury College
"I learned a lot about Greece and Greek history which was very worthwhile to me and my studies - the age of the cities there and specifically Thessaloniki's story was very engaging because it's so visible everywhere you go there. "
Miriam G Brandeis University
"While the academic side of the program wasn’t as challenging as I hoped, I gained a lot from the opportunity to travel extensively. Exploring new places, meeting different people, and experiencing diverse cultures broadened my perspective and helped me grow personally. In that sense, the experience was definitely worthwhile — ev..."

Lauren K Wellesley College
"i learned french"
A student Wellesley College
"It was so important to me that I was able to fend for myself in an entirely new place. Sydney is such a beautiful place, and I loved its downtown and the incredible beaches that were easily accessible. I met so many people and in turn, learned a lot about myself by making new friends from around the globe."
A student Wellesley College
"It was worthwhile to have the opportunity to travel and explore New Zealand. If you like to be outdoors and meet other people who like similar activities, then it is a great experience."
A student Wellesley College
"I learned how much I am capable of as an independent person. I learned how to adapt to a new environment, how to think and learn in a different way, how to interact with different people, how to be comfortable alone, and how to travel alone. I met some really cool people, did some cool things, and made some good memories."
A student Wellesley College
"I learned a lot of the Singaporean culture and their unique Singlish. I was also exposed to their education system and loved exploring there in general!"
A student Brandeis University
"I gained too much to possibly put into words, but very worthwhile"
Margaret P Brandeis University
"I learned a great deal about London culture, as well as broader European culture. "
A student Brandeis University
"I learned a lot about Maori and Pasifika culture and how the Indigenous people of Aotearoa experience cultural identity loss and other challenges that pertain to colonisation, climate change, missionisation, and rights under colonial powers like the Crown for example. I also learned a lot about the sociopolitical environment of ..."
Halle Z Middlebury College
"A few important lessons for me were: - Take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself, but also don't be afraid to take time to yourself when needed - I learned one of my strengths is talking to people - leaning into new experiences was incredibly important and I learned how much I loved getting to know people from..."

"I learned how international travel works! I learned a lot about navigating a new country and interacting with new people even with not knowing a lot of the language. I thought it was a very worthwhile experience."
A student Wellesley College
"This program requires you to be independent and self-motivated since classes are recorded and attendance is optional, and I became more confident by forcing myself out of my comfort zone. "
A student Wellesley College
"Increased writing and research abilities, new friends, and an increased understanding of the UK and European international relations."
A student Brandeis University
"I chose to go to Aotearoa NZ to get outdoors and venture beyond day hikes (which was what I was primarily used, coming from a big city). I grew so much in my outdoor skills this semester, and I highly recommend Aotearoa NZ for those looking to start learning how to camp/how to backpack. The tramping club was also a great resourc..."
A student Wellesley College
"It was worthwhile and I learned a lot about myself through travel (being with other people, what things make me excited, how I like to interact with people)."
Benson C Middlebury College
"I learned to push myself past all my comfort zones and overcome my fear of discomfort and failure, which has often held me back from making my own decisions and doing things I wanted to in the past. At my home university, my focus was always to study and stay on campus, but while abroad, I felt the brevity of my time there and t..."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned to put myself out of my comfort zone, and that most people are also a little nervous. It was definitely worthwhile. "
