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.

Samantha P Lebanon Valley College
"All in all, my experiences were amazing in Hong Kong because I fulfilled and surpassed my academic, personal and professional goals. Academically, I was most definitely challenged by the coursework. It was a unique experience because they were all classes I would not have found at my home university. The classes not only broaden..."
Stephanie C Villanova University
"YES. I would never have this opportunity if it wasn't for a study abroad program. I wound't have the time, or funds (thanks mom and dad) if I didn't go when I did. I traveled to 4 other countries, saw a lot of Italy and learned that I am capable of so many things I didn't even know I could do. For example I got myself from Perug..."

"Being in Italy was excellent, but this was not my ideal program. My home university and host university both put me through a lot of nonsense.

"Studying abroad helped me develop an appreciation for the Scottish culture (I know it sounds generic, but it's true). Perhaps just as importantly, I realized how grateful I should be that I live in America, even with it's faults. Ultimately, I found this experience to be very humbling."
Taylor D Illinois State University
"Being abroad is a unique experience in that never would I have been able to learn what I did in Rome.

I can say that it changed my life and there is not a single thing I regret of the experience."
Anabella M University of Miami
"I've been able to form life-long friendships with people from literally every corner of this world. I have been exposed to many cultural differences and have learned to accept and respect them.
