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.
Study Abroad with Direct Enrollment/Exchange
"I had a wonderful term at UCL! Living in London was fabulous. The activity seems endless; there is always some place to explore, an event to see, and people to spend time with. UCL academics helped me to develop better research skills. Furthermore, I made many great friends through lectures, the residence hall, and general life/..."
A student Wellesley College
"I learned out to adapt to different cultures and a new environment. It was definitely worth it, I just wish it were at a school in London. "
A student Bentley University
"I realized how focused Americans are on just the United States. People abroad knew so much about our country, politics, and etc. They were so interested in knowing my opinions on policies that I didn't even know existed. I was embarrassed by this! I also thought going to London meant same language, same everything. But it was a ..."

"I learned that an experience is what you make it. You have to be willing to put yourself out there to be accepted or rejected. And it was"
A student Bentley University

Julia H Shenandoah University
"Learned to be responsible for myself. It was worth every penny in the end."
A student Bentley University
"I feel like a more competent person. I was able to travel around Europe on my own or in a small group without always having phone/internet access. I am much better at reading maps and my German and French have improved. I met some incredible people that I don't think I would have met otherwise."
A student Wellesley College
"I learned the importance of individuality along with many characteristics of myself. The trip was completely worthwhile I would do it again in a heart beat. I made great friends and grew up as a student, adult and friend. "
A student Bentley University
"I grew so much as a person. Just taking in a whole different culture changes the way someone thinks. Also the friends I made will last a lifetime and I can't wait to see them again very soon!"

"So much, so worthwhile"
A student Bentley University
"I sacrificed a whole lot to come to Korea, and even if I had the chance to go back, I would make the same decision. I made many life-long friendships and experienced things that I wouldn't have been possible back in the States. "
Hannah L The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned to be independent, more confident, and realized the beauty of different cultures as well as in my life"
A student Western Washington University
"It was completely worth while! I learned so much about the Catalan culture and the Spanish lifestyle. I went on 5 or 6 trips outside of Spain and that was also an amazing experience. Every culture is so different and unique, it's fun to learn about them all."

Michael Z Bentley University
"I learned a lot about how other people live and about different cultures. Unfortunately, I felt really stiffled in my program because it was so difficult to make friends either American or Spanish. I think if we are not forced to take classes in Spanish, then we should go through a program like Syracuse because then you are wit..."

rlin University of the Pacific
"I got to learn a lot about myself and how to live on my own. CBS did not give much help and there was really no campus like Bentley, so it was up to the student to be independent and figure things out for themselves. The city has so much to do and is unlike any other city I have ever been to. It was definitely worthwhile and I r..."
