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.

"It was so worthwhile. I became a much better writer, editor, and scholar with all of the one-on-one attention of the tutorial system and peer editing, and the independent-learning way of Oxford. I loved how free I was to make up my own schedule for learning - going to whatever lectures I wanted to (I went to LOTS just because th..."

A student Brandeis University
"I learned how the rest of the world works, how to travel on my own, how to be alone, and take the world head-on. I do not think it was worthwhile because I did not get helpful credit out of it or really enjoy myself. "

"Sant'Anna did an amazing job making their students feel at home in Sorrento. This was undoubtably the best 5 weeks of my life. The town is beautiful and the people are extremely friendly.

"I gained a better understanding of myself, and how I am capable of living in a new place on my own. It was worthwhile, and while these are probably not the best four month of my life, they were definitely four months that I will never forget. "
A student Middlebury College
"I learned how to live in a huge, international city. I learned how to get through a very tough situation while alone. I learned a lot about myself, like that I shouldn't move to a foreign country where I don't know a single person. These are worthwhile lessons, but at a steep cost."
A student Wellesley College
"During my study abroad year, I was able to immerse in the new culture and make many new friends, with whom I was able to make valuable memories.
