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.

"Clearly, from my ratings and comments above, this experience was one that I wouldn't change for a lifetime. I am going to visit again in March, and have been seriously considering Grad School there when I graduate.

"I feel like I have become a more independent, capable adult. I truly feel like I broke out of my comfort zone and made the best of my experience.

"WWU is not very helpful to people who study abroad. My program went a bit beyond winter quarter but I had to sign all this paper work to get back in, I wasn't allowed to work my jobs until I was registered for classes (they initially told me I would be able to then half way through my trip said I couldn't so I had to figure some..."

"I became more responsible and better at taking initiative. It has also made me a more adventurous and outgoing person, because I had to do everything on my own will if I wanted to have any fun.
