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 to study with more self discipline since there are only final exams at LSE. I also learned to party harder. Balancing those two is a skill that is definitely worth while to have."
Shekeyla C Brandeis University
"yes"
A student Sarah Lawrence College
"Yes, so many things went wrong and I learned so much from all of it. I learned patience, and different views of different people. I learned to not stress the small stuff. I learned that love is most important."
Paige L Presbyterian College
" The local students at Seoul National University are known to be very very hard workers which made my classes quite challenging. However, it was very fascinating to see and learn how eager they are to learn and also manage to have social life as well. There are so many things you could learn from the local students. Also, they h..."

"I learned that being abroad by yourself, without a host family to take care of you, is a lot harder than I thought it would be. I gained great friendships from people in Brazil and all over the world. I learned that giving someone your trust is not the same as having them trust in you. I learned to stand up for myself and speak ..."

"I learned a lot about myself and my own capabilities. I learned to adapt to new situations that I was not familiar with. I would definitely say the trip was worthwhile, it was an experience I will never forget."
mike.lehmann.5011 University of Northern Iowa
"I left for study abroad with a serious devotion to the USA and a pretty solid belief that I could never love another country the way I love America. However, London and the United Kingdom at large showed me how wrong that belief was. I don't think I could ever live permanently in a country that isn't the good ole US of A, but I ..."

"It was definitely worthwhile. It was a completely new experience, trying to get the most out of just eight weeks, especially during an "intensive" scholastic program. I got to see and experience an entirely different culture and learn a new language enough to be proficient. Making time to travel was difficult, and I definitely s..."

"I wish it was more rigorous academically so I am not so unprepared to get back into senior year."
Maya L Brandeis University
"the culture. it was worthwhile"
Peggy C Suffolk University
"How to be a good student."
Fei X Brandeis University
"I learned a lot and became more independent as a person. It was my first time living in a foreign country without anyone that I knew. I was nervous to be alone at first but learned that if you submerge yourself in all that being abroad has to offer, you figure it out quickly!"
Lindsay W Middlebury College
"I gained many new friends, great korean practice, and overall the greatest semester of my life. Definitely worthwhile."
Matias S The University of Texas at Austin
"I became more comfortable speaking Japanese. Even if I made mistakes, I kept trying. "

"1. Greater self-awareness: there's not even a language barrier for London programs, but it's still study abroad, and being away from my friends and my college for a year resulted in a certain sense of loneliness that forced me to get in touch with myself more than I had before coming to London. This experience is different for e..."

"I learned about Japanese culture first-hand. I learn how and why Japanese people think and act they way they do. It opened my mind to new ways of thinking and treating people. "
Stephanie O The University of Texas at Austin
"Improved my language skills, 110%. Confidence in myself. Life long memories. It was in every way worthwhile. "
A student Wellesley College
"Lots of social integration and academic rigor "
A student Wellesley College
"Not only did I improve my Japanese skills, I explored a good portion of the region and all of the "mini cities" within the giant city of Tokyo itself. I made friends from all over the world, one of whom is a Japanese student from Sophia who has come to UT to study this year. It was extremely worthwhile!!"
Britt P The University of Texas at Austin
"Definitely a worthwhile experience, it was difficult in the beginning because there was about three days of orientation and then you are completely on your own, but I would definitely do it again. While it does not sound like the typical study abroad experience, I had a great time at in Brighton, there is so much to between pub..."
Lina K Clark University - Worcester
"I think that I learned more from spending my time outside of campus than I did in class. I gained street skills and shortcuts to adapting to an unfamiliar culture. I definitely think that it was a worthwhile experience and would not hesitate to do it again if the opportunity presents itself. "
A student Brandeis University
"I learned about the Italian culture, but I also learned more about American culture. I noticed the differences between both cultures and nations. My class allowed me to explore the topics of beauty and art and religion and how important they are to human cultures. I also learned how to dress better. Yes, my experiences were wort..."
