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, International Summer Schools, Turkey, and Slovakia.
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.

"Aside from "gaining a different perspective" about the world, I was able to make a lot of memories in Seoul. For the first time, I learned what it was like to live far away from home and have to rely on myself more than ever, especially in a place that I didn't know the language. I had to teach myself to get by and I relied on m..."

Eric Authelet University of Maine - Orono
"This experience was absolutely worthwhile. I feel during my time abroad that learning was not isolated within the classroom / homework experience, but that learning was everywhere.

"I learned a lot about myself quite frankly. I felt challenged like I never had, but in a very good way (maybe not in the moment sometimes but in the end). I learned about Spain by being integrated into daily life, which I wouldn't trade for anything. I did not make many friends there because it was mostly a commuter campus, so I..."
A student Middlebury College
"I gain self-awareness and confidence. I wasn't comfortable at first, but I got out of my little bubble a bit late, but I believe it changed me for the better. I made better decisions, became more independent, and gained a lot of knowledge on the way. "

A student Universität Mannheim / University of Mannheim
"I can't even begin to explain the amount of knowledge I gained. First of all this was my first experience abroad and I think everyone educated through the american education system can attest to the fact that we never get to learn enough about other cultures and world geography. My experience abroad has shown me what it's like t..."
Kainoa Miyamoto International College of Seville / ICS
"Be more positive as trying more thing. Not being afraid of trying different food and things "
Irene Ortega International College of Seville / ICS
