Project Registration

All students wanting to participate in the 77th Annual Los Angeles County Science & Engineering Fair must create an account for themselves in our online system. Once this is done, students can apply for and receive pre-approval (if necessary*) before experimentation. Once the Site coordinator has indicated which students are eligible to participate, they will need to register their project in our system.

When a project is registered for the Fair, the Fair Administration will review it and determine if the project will be admitted into the Fair. All students will receive email notification regarding the acceptance or denial of their project, so it is essential that a correct email address that can receive outside emails is provided. Students whose projects are accepted into the Fair will receive a link to a Final Information Packet a few weeks before the Fair.

*Projects involving human subjects, vertebrates or higher functioning invertebrates, Potentially Hazardous Biological Agents (PHBA), Hazardous Chemicals, Activities, or Devices (HCAD) require pre-approval from the SRC. If your project required but did not obtain pre-approval before experimentation or before our deadline, it will not be eligible for the 77th Annual Los Angeles County Science and Engineering Fair.

Note: All members of the team (2-3 people) must come from the same school. A Site Coordinator must oversee the work of his or her students; doing this is not possible if a team member attends another school.

To register a Team Project, a Team Leader must be designated who will be responsible for the online registration of the project. Detailed instructions for registering a Team Project are in the 2027 Student Registration Scratch Sheet.
