Each year the International Center works with IIT alumni, faculty, staff, and student families to host international students for Thanksgiving dinner. This is an excellent opportunity for an international student to eat a home cooked meal, experience an American tradition, and have a nice relaxing afternoon/evening off campus.

To apply to participate in this cultural exchange program, please fill in our form here.

We regret that we may not be able to place all students, but we will let you know in advance if we do not have space to accommodate you. We will let you know about possible matches in early November. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact Ashley Sinclair, Coordinator of Study Abroad and Cultural Programs, at asincla1@iit.edu.
