Regional Science Fairs
Qualifying for OSSEF and ISEF
Students must be nominated from a Regional Fair to qualify for OSSEF, the state level competition. Students in grades 9 - 12 are eligible for advancement to ISEF (grades 6 -8 are not eligible for ISEF). OSSEF will advance a few students to ISEF based upon judging scores and recommendations.
Online student registration for OSSEF 2025 and Forms must be submitted through this website by 11:59 pm on February 11, 2025. The registration form opens January 13, 2025 at 8:00 am.
If a regional fair is independetly affiliated with ISEF, they may advance projects to Regeneron ISEF. Students who advance to ISEF from a regional fair may also choose to present their project at the Oklahoma State Science and Engineering Fair, but this is not required.
