3. Is there a set number of women who can come from each college to IBC?
   
   

   No! In fact, we've set up group rates to encourage groups from your college to attend IBC! That said many attendees come as individuals from their college. There is no specific maximum or minimum on attendees from any given college.

4. I might be the only student from my University coming to IBC. Will there be other "single" delegates from other Universities?
   
   

   Most definitely! Many of our attendees come as individuals from their colleges and universities, and we have designed our programming to help you foster new friendships with fellow attendees from around the world.
