Welcome Message

Welcome to the IYC official website. During the last 31 years over 7,500 young people from 14 different nations have benefited from the IYC experience. This annual event has helped build long lasting international friendships and invited young people to challenge themselves both physically and emotionally. It has provided opportunities to try new things and to learn about other nations culture and customs. Above all it has provided more FUN that anyone could expect to have in just two weeks. In 2003 the IYC is going to America for the first time. Take a look around, visit the University of Northern Iowa, our IYC host location and decide if you want to be part of the best International experiences available to 15 - 18 year olds.

Enjoy your visit.
