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, Venezuela, Belgium, and International Summer Schools.
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 so much about a new culture and place."
A student Brandeis University
"It was 100% worthwhile, everything from the daily mundane walks from class, to the very traditional one a year Oxford balls, were so special.

A student Brandeis University
"I learned that life doesn't have to be fast-paced to be fulfilling and I connected with people from places and backgrounds I'd never previously been exposed to. Because life was a little slower-paced, I felt truly present throughout the entire experience. "

Kijani D Middlebury College

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.

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."
