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.

"I learned so much about Hong Kong and Asian culture in general. Honestly, if I could give my experience 100 stars it wouldn't be enough. It really, truly changed my life forever. I've made some of my best friends in the world through the summer program, had priceless memories, and am considering moving to Hong Kong now!"
Rachel S University of Hawaii - Manoa
"Being at Sussex did not really change my outlook on the world. It was great meeting new people yet a lot of students enrolled in the program were from the US. At first I felt such a thrill being in a different country yet it became routine. After the first week it just seemed like I was at my home University only that it was En..."

"Being at Sussex did not really change my outlook on the world. After the first week it just seemed like I was at my home University only that it was England. Not much was different to me. I thought my study experience had changed my interest in my major but when I think abut it, it clouded my mind rather then enlightened it. I..."

"It was worthwhile because I could stay and efficiently study at the same time in my home country"
A student Brandeis University
"Yes. I gained life skills and knowledge, I learned how to cook, to better socialize, to be more patient, and about a whole other country and its people.

"I learned to be more outgoing and confident and to face challenges head-on. I learned to be more independent in my academics."
Lori S Wellesley College
"This experience was most definitely worthwhile! I never thought that I could learn as many things as I did in simply four months. I was surrounded by so many different languages and cultures all the time. I learned so much about myself and so much about the world. My future plans have definitely changed. As soon as I finish univ..."

"It was definitely worthwhile. I met so many people who I would have never met if I had not gone and got to see and do so many things that I would have never done otherwise. "
Victoria B Lebanon Valley College
"Study abroad definitely changed my life and I would recommend it to ANYONE. I learned so much about myself and the world at large. I became so much more self-reliant and independent, and I made so many lasting friendships, especially with other study abroad students. It was also a great break from the rigor of my university in t..."

Hilary H University of Northern Iowa
"Yes! Studying abroad really did change my life, which I'm sure tons of people say and it sounds trite, but it really did. My entire way of perceiving the world will always be a little different, and I think, if hard-pressed for an answer, the thing studying abroad taught me is that (despite my pessimism) people really might be g..."
Joshua B University of North Dakota
"I gained an understanding of people from different countries. It helped being able to communicate with people who know very little english. It gave me an international perspective and a passion for traveling. I want to be more involved internationally and continue to travel to meet up with my friends I have made from around t..."
Matthew M St. Cloud State University
"No one will "baby" you on this program, so you have to be prepared to take initiative in meeting people. That being said, I really enjoyed that aspect of the program and it allowed me to do a lot that I couldn't have done on many other programs."
