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.

Gal Zahori Brandeis University
"Going abroad was extremely worthwhile. I gained a new level of independence and confidence in my ability to make things work even far from home, not previously knowing anybody.

"I learned to make the best use of my time. Instead of procrastinating a paper / taking longer than necessary to complete assignments, I developed the habit of finishing assignments as soon as I could, so I could do something more fulfilling with my free time than I was accustomed to back home. I also gained a love of art through..."

"I've gained a lot of perspective on the diversity that exists in the world in all aspects of life, and gave me a different educational experience that I had at my home institution.

"This experience and the tutorial system changed my way of approaching coursework. The tutors really pushed us to the extent of our academic capacity, and I found the coursework to be very demanding. I also learned a lot about myself and realized how much I am able to provide for myself and thrive in a new environment."
A student Wellesley College
"I really liked the narrow focus of individual PPE courses at Oxford (when compared to Midd), it gave me much better insight into the topic than a more general Econ or PolSci class at Midd would do."

A student Wellesley College
"I gained so many friends from across the US, NZ, and the world. I learned a lot about New Zealand itself through living there but also through classes. I got to experience the feel of a large university. I would repeat this semester over again in a heartbeat. One of the best decisions I ever made, and probably the best 5 months ..."
Brent Edwards Middlebury College
"Because I've gotten such a strong education at Wellesley, I knew that I wanted my abroad experience to have a solid academic component. Ultimately, the tutorial system wasn't the best for my subject, and I didn't learn as much as I'd hoped, but the rest of the experience more than made up for it. Oxford (the university and town)..."
