Quick Notes

Phone help is available most hours. Click on the Contact Us either here or at the top of this page.
Teachers should register before students. This allows for proper linkage for the teachers to assist their students with all paperwork and status.
Registering a team project is covered under at the end of the student registration example.

Project Information and Requirements

Note: The abstract is entered twice for the project. 1.) In registration the abstract text is entered or added at a later time. This is used by the online judges. 2.) There is an ISEF abstract form. Be sure when entering or changing the abstract, that you change both locations (in registration and the ISEF form).
Project Requirements - A virtual fair is quite a different experience from an "in person" fair. This page describes the required pictures, documents, and videos for competing in a Virtual Fair. The requirements are designed to mimic the requirements of the Minnesota State Science and Engineering Fair (MSSEF).
Blank Student Forms - Blank individual project forms collected in a single page.
TCRSF Rules Regarding Dates on Forms - The requirements for dates on TCRSF forms can be confusing. It is often the date of approval, not the date the form was signed. This link provides clarification on the issue.
