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, Costa Rica, Italy, and Ecuador.
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 matured a lot and gained independence being abroad. At the LSE, the academic and administrative system is very different from what I'm used to in the states and at times I felt like nobody really cared for you. However, this pushed me to adopt this "solve your own problems" mentality and gave me more confidence as well. I trav..."

"Studying abroad was something I wanted to do since I was in high school. I loved the idea of it. What I didn't realize was that it would change me as much as it did.

"British culture and lifestyle. Also LSE has taught me a great deal on macroeconomics and environmental economics. Their teaching is systematic and intense.

"It was worthwhile, I learned to be a more independent and strong person. I was thrown into a country I didn't know with no one around to help me, but I made friends and created a second home!"
Ben B University of Northern Iowa
"I learned that no matter where you are from all human beings are the same deep down. However, cultural and societal norms do play a big role in influencing behavior. Something that might seem totally normal to an American (Drinking my cappucino on a tram), might seem totally absurd to an Italian. Where as in America everythin..."

Definitely worth every effort, penn..."

"London is a wonderful city, and of all my experiences over the year, the only thing that made me pleased with my decision to study abroad at UCL was being able to spent the year wandering London. Walking through the parks, exploring museums, and setting off with an end destination in mind without having plotted a course (getting..."
