Student Project Registration
All participants in the Annual Los Angeles County Science & Engineering Fair must complete online registration for both themselves and their projects — including students who have already received pre-approval.
Overview
The Fair President reviews each submitted project to determine admission eligibility. Students receive email notifications regarding acceptance or rejection decisions — make sure to provide a valid email address that can receive external messages.
Accepted students will receive a Final Information Packet via email several weeks before the event.
Projects Requiring Pre-Approval
Certain project types require mandatory pre-approval from the Science Review Committee before experimentation begins. Projects lacking required approval will be rejected from participation.
