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 learned a tremendous amount about Eastern Europe, often simply from causal conversation with my fellow students. The chance to live in an environment where I could meet students from numerous countries over the course of my day-to-day activities was such a great experience that really expanded my horizons. Attending AUBG was u..."

A student University of Alabama - Tuscaloosa
"This program is definitely worthwhile. Studying abroad changed my life for the better. It has motivated me to constantly aim to see the world, travel, and has broadened my ways of thinking. I am also more cultural because of this experience."

"Studying abroad is the most important thing that I can recommend to any college student. You will gain world experience and get out of you comfort zone. Studying abroad helped me to see outside of my Mississippi bubble and look at art in a new way."
Mickenzie R Mississippi State University
"Not to be afraid to branch out and try/explore new things, whether it is with your friends or independently. I enjoyed exploring London on my own as much as I did with a group of people. I became much more open to different experiences and grew much more as an individual and supporting myself while studying abroad."
A student Fairfield University
"I learned that I can ignore bullies, but also that I can stand up to them and make sure they know they cannot pick on me. I've learned to depend on myself and not on others for help. "

"Attending the University of Cambridge as a study abroad student was an extremely fulfilling experience. I was able to take courses that I would not otherwise have been able to at Wellesley College due to the difference in size of both institutions. "
A student Wellesley College

Jeffrey S Presbyterian College
"During my time abroad, I was able to learn a lot about British culture as Cambridge is about as British as it can get! I loved walking through the town of Cambridge-it is quite idyllic. Cambridge also has a very distinctive history and culture that truly adds to the academic experience. Some traditions (such as formal halls) ha..."

A student Wellesley College
"What did i have to lose? It was most definitely worth it, most incredible experience I have had. To live in another country, and a place so rich in history and culture was surreal."
kire E Warren Wilson College
"The Slade School of Art is less "school" than training to be a practicing artist in the art world. I learned so much about what that involves and now feel confident to continue an art career after I graduate. London is the best city in the world, in my opinion. The city was beautiful, there was always lots to do and see (not jus..."
Mary Beth K Wellesley College
"I gained/learned more than I could ever express on a review for a website. It would take hours sitting and drinking tea just to break down what I gained from my experience in Guizhou. It was the most worthwhile thing I have done in my life. "
