Overview
The Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange (CBYX) program is a full-scholarship exchange program for American high school students and recent graduates to live and study in Germany. The program aims to foster cultural understanding and strengthen ties between the United States and Germany. Participants live with host families, attend school, and participate in community activities. CBYX is jointly funded and managed by the U.S. Department of State and the German Bundestag. It was established in 1983 to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the first German settlement in America.
