Our Mission: "To Make a Difference". Beginning 22 years ago, the Mrs. International Pageant was developed to have higher standards than other pageant systems. The focus behind Miss Teen International is to showcase women who are 13 to 18 years old, by July 1st of competition year and are a resident of the state or a citizen of the country they represent. Each contestant competes in Interview Competition valued at 40% of their total score, Evening Gown valued for 20%, Fitness Wear for 20%, and Fun Fashion Wear 20%. Each contestant has the opportunity to select a platform of her choice that she spends the year promoting.
