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.

"YES. I loved Rome. "
Nicole R University of Arizona
"Except for failing a class, yes."
Kyle P University of Northern Iowa
"I gained a very strong sense of independence and confidence in my self - reliance. Being abroad constantly puts you in situations where you just have to figure something out on your own in a totally new country without knowing anyone frequently. It changed my life and calmed me down. I don't worry about things as much and hav..."
Meagan F Wellesley College
"The travel was one of the best parts. I loved my teachers and got to know them on a personal level. My mom got to come visit me after my program and that definitely was a highlight of my abroad experience, showing someone close to me what I had learned over the semester."

mackenzie b Middlebury College
"I learned about myself through the people I met and the places I visited. I learned more about my religion and why it is important to me. I also learned that I don't enjoy hikes in the desert during August! I know so much more about the issues Israelis face within their country and with the Middle East. They are amazing human be..."
Lani W Salisbury University
"My experience was very worthwhile. I noted the downfalls because I believe other students should have an idea of what they're getting themselves into, but none of the pitfalls were a huge problem for me. I enjoyed my classes, loved the country, and made amazing friends. I highly recommend a similar experience to other culturally..."
Sarah K Middlebury College
"I learned how to cook, learned about different cultures, different foods, and what it's like to live in less than ideal housing. It was important in learning to deal with situations and made me realize how much I take my school for granted. I met some great friends and traveled with them around Europe after my program ended. "
Jon M Olin College
"Yes. I got to live in a whole new country for four months. I met friends I know I will forever keep. I was taken out of my comfort zone and forced to spend such a long period of time with complete strangers in a country different from America."
Ashley K Wellesley College
"I think what really made this study abroad experience worthwhile was my host family. They were all I could ask for in a host family, and I wouldn't have traded them for any other host family or dorm/apartment stay. "
Travis S University of the Pacific
"It was the most rewarding thing I have ever done. I grew to really understand my passion for the language. It has encouraged me to return to get my masters and to possibly teach English"
Katie M University of Nebraska- Lincoln
"Yes. Any opportunity to study abroad is worth while. Haifa taught me so much about life, the world, myself, and things I never knew about. I will be forever thankful for the challenges and joys I had in Haifa."

Kristine A Philipps University Marburg
"My study abroad experience was absolutely worth while. I would do it all again if I could, and I wish I could stay longer than a year. This truly feels like my home now. I have gained understanding of a different culture and learned how to speak another language. I am now even more interested in Japan and will definitely try to ..."
Amy D University of the Pacific
"Studying abroad in Taiwan allowed me to see how it has a major role in East Asia, economically and politically. It has retained much of the historically Chinese culture with its distance from the mainland's Cultural Revolution. The Taiwanese people are friendly and enthusiastically welcoming. It was a great experience and I wish..."
Stephen L University of the Pacific

Hannah A University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse
"of course it was worthwhile! i got the opportunity to live in another country for 4 months and learn about an entirely different culture and way of life outside of my own. i am so thankful that i took this opportunity while in college, and it definitely sparked a love for travel that i never knew i had."
A student High School
