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 the best time of my life in England and Sheffield Hallam helped that by making it possible for me to establish friendships so early in the program. I met so many people and no have friends all over the world. "
Courtney H Indiana University of Pennsylvania
"I learned to be more understanding of different backgrouns. I became a more well-rounded person, and matured a lot. I plan to travel in the future, and due to the program I added another course of study back at ISU which I think I will really love."
Katie L Illinois State University
"My Spanish improved so much. I learned a lot about myself, Chilean culture, and how the United States has influenced the rest of the world and how the rest of the world views the United States. I can't wait to return to Chile and South America."
Anne F Western Washington University
"Spanish confidence. The people were wonderful, and I will definately go back again"
Mora S Western Washington University
"Going to a country by myself, not knowing anyone there, really forced me to be more independent and put myself out there. It helped me grow in confidence and try things I probably wouldn't have thought to try before."
Ashley S University of North Dakota
"I gained knowledge of the Spanish language and how to be respectful in a country that's not your own. Also, how it feels to have a language barrier and being completely lost. Back in the U.S. I have gained patience for those studying abroad at my own university. In the future I want to return to Europe to continue my voyage."
Sarah V Western Washington University
"i learned how to be more laid back and it helped me to change my perspective. i loved italy."
Abigail t Illinois State University
"I feel my time was too short. I will return to South Korea to reunite with the connections I have made there. My internship experience opened my eyes to many opportunities and I plan to pursue them! South Korea is a country that is progressing with great stride and I want to be a part of it. I am a non-traditional student who is..."

"It helped me to gain a more objective view of things that are going on in America."
Brent F Illinois State University
"Being here did not chance my plans, but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. I learned a lot about my own country as well. "
Matthew D Illinois State University
"I learned what it means to be a global learner and how I can bring that to the students that I will be teaching some day. I may even want to teach in my host country some day because I had a good experience."
Amanda F Hope College
"Definitely worthwhile. I grew up a lot, but I wish I was in a bigger city with more to do."
Melissa Z Illinois State University
"My experience was, though simply for academic reasons I would have chosen my other option, England, in order to take classes that lined up with my major more appropriately. The experience has not changed my future plans, simply given me different perspectives to consider while I pursue them. "
Matthew M Illinois State University
"It truly is difficult to say how it changed me, because I wouldn't say that I have changed in any profound way. I am just simply more aware of different modes of thinking, and different ways to go about ones day. I would say I have only changed in little way e.g. I will probably take more pleasure and time out of some of my futu..."
steven m New Mexico State University
"Absolutely! I have learned to be grateful for what I have, that I need to take my education very seriously, and not to be afraid of what is out there in the world. Take chances!"
Jacob W Illinois State University
"This experience has completed changed my perspective and outlook on life. I got the desire to travel more now and experience other cultures. I feel as if any task can be completed and the experience itself is hard to explain to others because it was an incredible and shocking experience. "
Kelly q Illinois State University
" Yes certainly. It was the first time I ever lived abroad. Going to a European university also forces you to be a lot more independent than an American university, where you are kind of babied, so that's a good learning experience."
Gabriel S Illinois State University
"I really enjoyed my study abroad experience. I improved my French tremendously, but I was very disappointed with the school itself. "
Nicole L New Mexico State University
"I loved being able to travel everywhere and see important places and monuments. I liked the program I was in, but if I was to do it again I would want to experience another place, another culture."
Katherine S Illinois State University
"It helped me realise that there's more to England than London and London really is as overrated as I thought."

"It was fantastic! I not only learrned alot about Australia but I also learned alot about the U.S. "
Bailee M Wartburg College
"Studying abroad for me really helped me find myself. I was in situations that i felt were really character building. You learn that you either run or get ran over. I think it's a life changing experience that teaches you valuable lessons about who you are and makes you a more well-rounded individual."
