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, The United Kingdom, and Ireland.
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.

Europeans take time to smell the beautiful flowers and embrace the one-day-at-a-time lifestyle and just live/work to enjoy life. SO worthwhile, and definitely one of the ..."

Esteban R The University of Texas at Austin
"Absolutely worthwhile"
A student Tufts University
"I learned how to deal with loneliness and find happiness in small accomplishments. Iceland is an incredibly unique place with so much to see. Unfortunately, travel is expensive (no real public transportation, car rental required) and choosing Iceland as a study abroad location means giving up the whole "traveling through Europe"..."
