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 really didn't gain anything from this trip but a lot of nice pictures and stories."
Matt G None
"Independence and Confidence in myself. I was lost before I went but now had a clear cut path of what I wanted out of life. "
Dana W University of Wisconsin - Oshkosh
"Overall, this was an excellent experience for me. I gained quite a few friends from places all over the world, and made some great memories. I learned so many small details about other cultures that you can't gain from reading textbooks. The exchange also allowed me to travel around Europe and experience several different cou..."
Kristen R Western Washington University
"The study abroad experience has changed my life so profoundly. I gained a confidence I didn't have before that comes only from knowing that you can go out into the world and not only survive it, but have an amazing time in it! It made me more confident to meet people, and more confident that I could make things happen for myself..."
Ariana C University of the Pacific
"I learned to be more independent. It was a unique experience that I will always have the memory and lessons I learned from it. It helped me become more aware of different cultures and how people in different countries live so differently from the USA. It helped my love of Hispanic culture grow and lead me to be able to teach ..."
Elisabeth S Wheaton College
"The experience was definitely worthwhile. Mexico is an incredible place and PMCSP provides an excellent opportunity for students to take classes at the University which leads to great language acquisition and creates a better understanding of daily life in Puebla. "

"I gained the confidence to use my Japanese speaking skills, as well as improve upon them greatly."
Anna S Austin College
"I have greatly improved my language skills. Also, I have gained knowledge about foreign countries' customs, not just Japan either, but through the other international students I have learned about their countries, and how America is viewed. This experience has reinforced my wish to learn more languages and travel or work abroad."
Emmaline C Hollins University
"I gained the knowledge that I can go to a foreign place, with a completely different language, and adapt. Because the program was so small and the town so tiny, all of us got to know each other, people from Germany, Mexico, France, Chili. Academically it was not challenging, so don't go for what you will learn in class. "
Cassandra T Western Washington University
"Cant be explained"
Josh S Western Washington University
"Yes, but a different program would have been more beneficial."
Arielle Y Western Washington University
"My study abroad trip was very worthwhile. The experiences I gained, not to mention the fluency I won, changed my career options. I want to be a translator, and I could never have gotten the fluency or the cultural insight to do it without my study abroad."
Elani K Western Washington University
"I now have been somewhere with people that are much different than the people I'm around back home. I see things from an Irish perspective as well as from other perspectives. I have learned so much the friends I've made from the USA because they are from such different places. I will definitely make time for a lot of traveling i..."
Will G Presbyterian College
"Yes."
Amrita D Harvard University
"I gained a new perspective on the international community. Before I thought that I was fairly open minded however I was confronted with so many new things that I didn't even think of that is really expands your horizons. I plan to try to work with the diplomatic services in Japan and I really hope this experience helps me do tha..."
Andrew O University of Maine - Augusta
"When I came home from my 5 weeks studying abroad, I literally felt like a new person. I realized how much I grew in the time away. I was nervous to go, but afterwards I wished I went for an entire year. I also learned so much of the language. Prior to the trip, I could not understand half of what the teacher would say in my coll..."
Mindy C University of Maryland - Baltimore County
"I've loved Russia for years now, and living in Moscow for two months just solidified that. I love Russian culture and the Russian people, and the country just has so much history and culture--it is awe-inspiring. Winston Churchill once described Russia as "a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma" and in many ways, he's ..."
Kristin S Southern Illinois University - Carbondale

"Best experience of my undergraduate career. I did not learn that much in the actual classroom, but overall I learned more about life and the world than I did throughout the rest of college combined."

"I greatly enjoyed my time in Scotland. The people there love their country, and love to talk about it. It was great to get to meet very kind locals who only wished that you would have a good time while visiting their country. Even though the US and Scotland seem to have very similar cultures, there were definitely differences..."
