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.

A student University of Maine - Orono
"A new language!"
Susannah Rees University of Oxford
"I learned to take care of my own problems quite a bit. I also learned a lot about interacting with people from other cultures. I expected to do so with Japanese people, but even more so I met and befriended a number of international students from around the world. It was definitely a worthwhile experience."
Christopher Mitchell University of the Pacific
"I learned about the culture, predominantly through the language and by meeting locals. It challenged my beliefs and values in a very good way."
Alek K Brandeis University
"Learned about the complexities of Israel, being in Jerusalem, which is really the center of Judaism worldwide. It's also incredibly diverse with a tapestry of other cultures as well. I did Nachshon, which is also a terrific program. Would highly recommend. It's an excellent supplement for anyone interested in pursuing a career i..."

"The academic system at Oxford is immensely customizable, and I took multiple one-on-one courses with one Computer Science professor who got to know my learning style and pace very well."
Michelle Quin Wellesley College
"no"
A student Middlebury College
"I gained a lot of academic independence, American Universities felt like they held my hand to a laughable degree after getting used to Sciences Po. At the same time, I am looking forward to returning to such a supportive environment. Having seen the other side, I no longer feel dependent on wonderful teachers and plenty of offic..."
Sofia Xargay Wellesley College
"This specific program was great to go to during the spring semester because they take the month of April off for studying and Easter. This was perfect time to travel while having a home base in England. I wrote most of my papers while in class so I was prepared to come back for the May exam period. I loved the way I was able to ..."
Kate Birmingham-Southern College
"I discovered Paris and the French culture that i knew just a little bit. Luckily I was also able to travel Europe and discover other cultures."
Philippe Rhode Island School of Design
"I learned about a new culture and a lot of history"
A student Middlebury College
"The program was worthwhile. I learned a lot, but I had to do so independently. I am grateful for the experience as the educational system operates differently from Wellesley's. It was an awesome opportunity to also travel through Europe. "
A student Wellesley College
"First of all, I learnt a lot from academic perspective. I gained deep knowledge about my course (International Business and Finance) which for sure will be useful for my future studies. When it comes to social side, it is even more worthwhile than academic, cause that is a unique chance where you expose yourself to such a multi..."
Huseyn Abdullayev
"Knowledge mostly, and meeting people from a lot of different countries. Plus I wanted to spend some time in London and England in general so that was nice."
A student
"I really learned a lot about independence. In some ways, I think the American liberal arts college system limits independence as a trade-off for great support and community. After two years at Wellesley, I wanted to be in a collegial environment that allowed me to chart my own course and manage my own time with more flexibility,..."
Laura Wellesley College
"I learned a lot about my identity as Black American. "
A student Middlebury College
"I definitely became more independent. It was worthwhile because I was able to meet new friends outside of Wellesley and travel a lot. "
A student Wellesley College
"Aside from an interesting art class that I would never have taken at Wellesley, I grew in my spirituality and also fell in love, so that's potentially changed the whole trajectory of my life. Totally worthwhile."
A student Wellesley College
"I learned more about myself and what I am capable of doing if I put my mind to it. It was definitely worthwhile. It had its challenges but also memories I will hold deep in my heart. "
Melissa Atlixqueno Reyes Brandeis University
