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
"Coming from a fast-paced urban background, it was refreshing to slow down and enjoy life through Sydney's easygoing lifestyle. It made me appreciate the balance between commercial activity and natural beauty in a city. With such a friendly and laid-back atmosphere, it's hard not to smile and enjoy the abundant sunshine with the ..."

"How to travel on a budget, how to go with the flow and take things one day at a time."
A student Cornell University
"It was incredibly worthwhile, and I definitely recommend going abroad for a year because everyone who was there for only 1 term felt it was too short!"
A student Cornell University
"I learned to be more open to other cultures"
Liz H New Mexico State University
"I learned a lot about myself. Academic, professional and personal development."
gabrieljrd Cornell University
"Yes!"
A student Cornell University
"Yes. I learned a little more about the world and how people are all the same yet different because of cultures."
Andrew P Brandeis University
"I feel like I truly grew up during my experience abroad. You learn who you are as a person, apart from the influence of close friends and family, and what you're capable of achieving completely on your own. Studying abroad is the most important thing I've done so far in my life. I would do it again in a heartbeat."
Sarah H Ithaca College
"I learned a lot of language skills and cultural things about Japan. In that aspect it was worth it,but I wish I had chose somewhere else."
A student San Jose State University
"I learned that I am adaptable and that I can deal with setbacks. I also learned that I love to travel. The experience was incredibly worthwhile. I hope to get back to Europe, but it also made me appreciate the US, while at the same time noticing areas where we can improve. "
A student Cornell University
"Definitely the best semester of my college experience. I had been looking forward to studying abroad since freshmen year and my program and time in Tel Aviv did not disappoint. Tel Aviv is a great place to go, as there are many opportunities to be with Israelis and feel like less of a tourist. After visiting my friends studying ..."
A student Cornell University
"Just because you've done an activity for a long time doesn't mean you have to keep doing it while you're abroad. Try new things, take risks, and enjoy your experience. I think my trip was definately worthwhile."
A student Ithaca College
"My experience in London was extremely eye-opening. I learned how to be more self-sufficient academically, and personally. It was a very worthwhile experience"
Todd G Clark University - Worcester

A student The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes, it was worthwhile."
A student Wellesley College
"My Turkish improved so much. I learned about local culture when I asked about it. This study abroad experience was worthwhile!"
Evelyn The University of Texas at Austin
"It was amazing. Words cannot describe. I learned to look at the bigger picture, that there is a whole world -people, places, food, etc- out there that the microcosm of Cornell does not even begin to reveal. "
A student Cornell University
"NUFS is what you make it. You have a chance to either hang out with only foreign students "comfort zone" or hang out with Japanese students, or a balance of both "very difficult for people to maintain." Since you are going to Japan to study Japanese, enjoy the culture and lifestyle for a year (which is a VERY short time), make ..."
Aishat A University of Texas - San Antonio
"It was completely worthwhile. I met the greatest people that I will be friends with for years to come. I met my boyfriend while I was over there (Australian), and my american friends, australian boyfriend, and I were able to meet up in the US and travel around the US together after the program."
McColl H Ithaca College

Natalie C New Mexico State University
"I learned how to think about Spanish--priceless "
A student Western Washington University
"YES, learned so much about myself and other cultures, improved my spanish. Now I was to travel more."
A student Western Washington University
"It was absolutely worthwhile. HK is such a convenient location because it's close to all these other interesting countries and I got to travel and see places that I had previously only dreamed of going to. I also loved getting to meet other international students from very diverse backgrounds and speaking to them about their liv..."
Betty K Brandeis University
"Very worthwhile. "
A student Western Washington University
"Definitely worth while. I got to dip my feet into a new, beautiful culture that welcomed me with open arms. The experiences of being put outside my comfort zone is exactly what I needed to start me in the right direction of continuing my Spanish education."
