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.

A student
"It was the best experience of my life. I made the most amazing friends from all over the world. I was able to learn to live on a budget. I was able to see so much and learn so much and not from a text book but from real life."
Rachel P Illinois State University
"I believe that I gained countless qualities and understandings from my experience abroad. I learned so much about myself, became more independent and confident, and learned how to truly grasp and enjoy opportunities. I learned so much about different cultures and a new global outlook. "
Shalisa R Illinois State University
"My Japanese improved greatly. My knowledge of the Japanese culture and society greatly increased as well."

Zach W Illinois State University
"It shaped the way I see American culture. The difference in language accents, lifestyle and outlook on life varied in such interesting ways among the Scottish students compared to Americans. The program opened me up to having more fun and not taking school work too seriously."
Ben B Illinois State University
"Yes, it was worthwhile. I was able to see how the rest of the world functioned and worked. Although it does not affect my future plans or academic interests, it was definitely a great experience."
Nicole M Illinois State University
"I learned that life does not need to be taken so incredibly seriously like Americans take it. Life is all about sharing wonderful memories with your friends and family and live up every second because it passes you by. Be spontaneous and don't be afraid of different things. I now keep an open mind about everything and find my se..."

A student Abroad101 University

Lily L Mississippi State University
"I learned to take things slowly, appreciate the things I have even more. The people of New Zealand are simple; they don't need a lot to keep them happy. Being able to spend time with their friends and family over a good meal is enough for them. Being from Hawai'i has exposed me to many different cultures, but the Maori culture i..."
Tatiana R Chapman University
"OH MY GOODNESS YES!! The friends, memories, experiences, and so much more made me the person I am today."
Marissa D Tiffin University
"This being my first time abroad, helped me realize how much stereotype is out there in the world. Being a Hmong Asian American while living in New Zealand was hard to teach and explain to everyone about my culture. Being from an ethnicity that doesn't have a home country is hard to explain. Growing up and living in the States, i..."
Nalee V University of Minnesota - Twin Cities
"I learned that the rest of the world is very similar to the United States. People are people no matter where you go. I plan on living abroad after I graduate from college. This experience has given me the knowledge that I will be alright on my own and more than capable of making a life for myself no matter where I end up."
Jamie R Illinois State University
"I really learned a lot about myself. cliche, i know. but while i was there i never felt like i had to prove anything and i was so easily accepted i was just allowed to be me. At home I am always brought down with pressure of grades and classes I never got to really try new things or meet new people. studying abroad helped me rea..."
Andrea F Colorado State University

Rebekah L University of Hawaii - Manoa
