Direct Enrollment/Exchange is a program provider offering 1872 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
"The most important things I learned from my experience abroad was how to be flexible, patient, and manage my time better. These are all crucial components to my future career as a health care provider, so it was more than worthwhile. "
A student University of Hartford
"I learned not to be afraid to travel alone (especially as a female traveler). This was the perfect time for me to learn about myself, what I like, and that I can offer myself the best company. The opportunities and experienced I from traveling around the UK and to different European countries if imperative in my belief that the ..."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"Looking back on it, my study abroad experience has helped me become much more independent. It's been an incredibly valuable experience and has really helped me to grow as a person. I've learned more through my travels and everyday experiences than I even have in a classroom. "
Maddie C Texas Christian University
"This experience really prompted me to break out of my shell considering that I had no one physically there to guide me or share the same struggle. I am or Mexican descent and I have visited Mexico City before but I was too young to even remember. Even with my Mexican background, I had to renegotiate my identity several times whi..."
Nathalie C Wellesley College
"I learned that I like Taiwan, but this course made me unmotivated to learn Chinese and to hate NSYSU."
Ryan W University of Texas - San Antonio
"How to budget on a weekly basis, how to balance course work and travel, and how to interact with new people from different cultures"
A student St. Mary's College of Maryland
"It was totally worth it! I learned how to actually live on my own. I learned how to cook, problem solve and how to get lost in another country."
Bailey B SUNY - College at Fredonia
"I learned how to connect with people from a completely different culture and completely different backgrounds. I learned how to be my best self and how to see the world."
Dustin B Texas Christian University
"It was totally worthwhile! I gained a whole lot of self confidence, learned how to be waaaaay more independent, and figured out the art of traveling in a group and by oneself. Such a great experience. :)"
Molly L The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned how to be independent in a large city and reach out and make new friends from all different backgrounds"
A student University of Roehampton
"YES!! Best advice I received before going abroad was: just say yes. I learned to say yes, and become more independent (including a two month solo backpacking trip across Argentina!) and more adventurous."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"It was neat to see the country from an academic side."
A student Middlebury College
"It was worthwhile. I learned a bit about England's culture, Amsterdam's culture and France's culture. I had fun hanging out with friends and participating in a social atmosphere. My fellow students were supportive and helpful."
Liam B University of Hawaii - Manoa
"It is not only about seeing the Big Ben or the London eye. Every aspect of the experience was worth it. Would absolutely do it again"

"Scotland's an amazing country. It was extremely worthwhile."
A student Wellesley College
"Yes it was worthwhile. I learned how to live on my own in a foreign country, as well as valuable traveling skills."

"Definitely worthwhile. It was interesting to be in a different culture, even one so similar to the US. The University system is different and it was great to experience a different way of learning"
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"Friends. Classes I couldn't take at my home uni. It was definitely worth."
Joshua D The University of Texas at Austin

"A lot and yes"
A student St. Mary's College of Maryland
"I loved Mexico, and although I didn't make as much of an effort to perfect my Spanish as I should have, I learned a lot from my Mexican friends about local culture. I also learned a lot about cultural exchange from my international friends. I enjoyed representing the United States abroad and learning more about the ties between ..."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned to be more independent, patient, humble, and adventurous. Going abroad forced me to become more adventurous and that was good for me. I think it was worthwhile for sure. "
Asma A The University of Texas at Austin
"While in Victoria, I was able to learn how to be truly on my own (and love it!) and connect with nature in a completely different way. I was asked several times why I would want to study in Canada, since it's basically the same as the USA. I found this to be completely untrue--they are different in many ways. I learned about dif..."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
