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 lot while studying abroad. I enhanced my knowledge of Mexico and the Spanish language.I met a lot of people that I would have never met without going on this program. I would definitely go back and do it again if I had the chance. "

"I gained SO MUCH self confidence, a better view of what the 'real world' is actually like, and a lot of gratitude for my own country.

I fell even more in love with the culture than I already was and learned things you just can't compr..."

Huanmin H Middlebury College
"If you're doing a whole year abroad, it might be helpful to visit the school(s) just as how high school students would visit colleges. London was a great city and a great experience, but I felt the particular institution wasn't necessarily the right fit. And fit is one of the most important factors - and that comes in two compon..."

Mikael V Middlebury College
"Perspective. I definitely gained perspective more than anything else. Coming back to Middlebury I was excited about my education for the first time since my freshman semester and I was well rested enough to step back and prioritize the things that I need and/or want to do. I can't say that I had any particularly world shattering..."
