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 made the most amazing friends during my experience at KU that I still keep in contact with on a daily basis. Being able to live in Korea is great, especially as an undergraduate student. The bars are cheap, the food is delicious, there is culture every where, the streets are safe, and there's an abundance of night life. Korea ..."
Zoe Dym University of Hawaii - Manoa
"I improve my Korean so much! After 4 weeks of studying Korean properly, I can already sing in Korean very well whenever I went to karaoke room in Korea! I can even chat with uncles/aunties on subway and talk to cashier in convenience shop. I used to study Korean on my own for a year, I thought I know enough, but I was wrong. ..."
Alifah Ilyana University of Glasgow

Jennifer Kim Michigan State University
"I improved my speaking skills and was able to learn a little more about the culture. I learned so many things in such a short period of time. I grew to love Korea even more than before."

Also, I know more about myself. I become more independent and willing to ..."
Chow Man To Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
"It's my first time to join an exchange program, and I have longed for going to Korea because of its culture. Joining KUISC is definitely a right choice because I am able to meet so many friends, both international and local. We always made great memories when we hanged out together. Besides, the courses I took offer me some know..."
Cheung Chi Yan Chinese University of Hong Kong / CUHK
"I'm not open to trying new things, and it really has opened my eyes to the world around me. Though I am still hesitant to talk to strangers, I am much less so. Smiling goes a long way. The program all in itself is the highlight of my year, and I think about it constantly. I can't wait to go back to Korea soon!"

"It was absolutely worthwhile. South Korea is a place that I learned to love deeply and so tenderly... Because of it's people, their history, their beautiful energy...

"I learned to be more independent and self-reliable during my experience abroad. Of course it is all fun and games, but throughout all the fun, at the end of it, you really learn to find yourself.

"Not surprisingly, I learned so much about the Korean culture however, along with that, I got to learn about myself. I had loads of alone time where I could make independent choices.
