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
"It was so interesting to learn in a different country. I loved the opportunity to live abroad while continuing to work towards my degree. Two bird one stone!"
A student Queen Mary University of London
"I learned to value my friendships and relationships with people more and also the value of introspection and thinking and questioning everything. I would say that I'm more open-minded now and a more understanding person. Definitely worthwhile."
Kai Fleischman The University of Texas at Austin
"I definitely learned independence because this was my first time having to set up a phone plan or buy my own hotel when traveling. I also felt like being alone was really scary, but I'm proud that I overcame it. I liked learning about the English education system as well and comparing it to what I experience here at America. I f..."

Stefano Antonio Agostino Raimo Bocconi University
"First, I had the possibility to learn how to live alone, independently, in a country with a different culture and language. The meeting with other foreign students is clearly my best experience and memory. I am still talking to them as they have been so important during the stay. I had been surprised by the pedagogical learning ..."
Oceane Universite Catholique de Lille / Lille Catholic University

Camille Drouin Queen Mary University of London
"Forced me mature so quickly. Had to navigate extensive public transit for the first time. No one was around to cook for me so I had to learn how to take care of myself. None of that mentions the theatrical studies in which I engaged. "
Geoffrey Ulysses Geissinger Saint Mary's College of California
"I learned how to study in an all-English speaking environment. It's quite different from the study pattern in China as I did a lot of reading in QMUL. It's very worthwhile."
Lishan Zhao Queen Mary University of London
"I gained a lot of wonderful experiences, independence, self-assurance, and flexibility. Putting me in a dorm with first-years felt odd at first but it was a new experience for all of us and thus I was easily able to make new friends and explore the city / college experience with other newbies."
McKenna Christian University of San Diego
"So much culture to take in along with the course itself. 100% worthwhile and wish I could go back every day. "

A student University of Toronto
"Though my experience was cut short due to COVID-19, those three months abroad were the best months of my life. I miss the environment and culture a lot. There's a lot of independence both academic and personal. I learned a lot about myself during this time."
