2009 Fair Registration will open February 18, 2009.

Directions for Junior & Senior Division
PLEASE READ FIRST

Registration for grades 6 - 12 must be completed by the teacher.

Junior Division = 5 projects. Each school that includes grades 6-8 may register a total of 5 eligible student projects encompassing those three grades.

Senior Division = 15 projects.  Each school that includes grades 9-12 may register a total of 15 eligible student projects encompassing those four grades.

Teachers will need each student's Project ID which was in the confirmation email you received when your student initially entered their project through the Online Eligibility Questionnaire. If you did not receive this ID number, email your request to scifair@ipfw.edu and your project ID’s will be emailed to you. (Didn’t enter the project through the Online Eligibility Questionnaire? Go to Online Eligibility Forms on homepage and do that step now)

Registration deadline for grade 6-12 students is 5 PM Friday, March 6, 2009. Project paperwork due for final SRC Review must be postmarked by this date.  LATE REGISTRATIONS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Only teachers/school science fair coordinators should register their students.

REMINDER: For students in grades 6-12, becoming eligible was a necessary prerequisite for participation in the Regional Fair. All student projects that required Pre-Experimentation Review must indicate (form 1A) the ACTUAL start dates of the experiment after the date of approval by the SRC Chair. If project was started prior to Approval, then this project is not eligible. This also applies to Human Subjects (form 4) as participant’s consent must have been given after the date of IRB approval. See the ISEF Rule Book for complete rules (human subject pg. 13-16)

Registration for eligible Junior and Senior Division students involves 3 steps:

Step 1: Click link (below) to register. Enter the student’s project ID in the ID box. The ID is 7 characters plus 2 hyphens. (For example: ENTR-32-H)

On the registration page, fill in the boxes (project title may be edited here if necessary) and submit. Team projects submit one registration form.

You will receive an email confirmation. To register additional projects, repeat Step 1.

Step 2: Mail each student’s complete ISEF project paperwork for SRC Post-Review to address below. Project paperwork must be postmarked by Friday, March 6, 2009.

  • Students who became eligible as a result of an SRC Pre-Experimentation Review are to complete the paperwork they submitted at the time of the Pre-Review AND include an abstract of their completed project on the ISEF Abstract Form.
  • Students whose projects were EXEMPT need to submit their signed exemption form (if not already mailed in) and their completed ISEF paperwork: ISEF Forms 1, 1A, Research Plan Attachment, 1B, AND an abstract of their completed project on the ISEF Abstract Form.
