Entry deadline.
As of Nov 5, 2007
you may
enter over the web.
Entry Cover Sheet
When you enter over the web, you will see, on the final screen, a link for obtaining
your entry coversheet. You may download it and print it using that link. The link will also be sent
to the student(s) and the advisor in a confirmation email. You can also use that link to
download the coversheet later on.
The student(s) and the advisor must sign this coversheet (use multiple copies for a team
project) and then the coversheet(s) should be sent to the address indicated, along with all ISEF forms, and
the $10 entry fee for each student.
If you need to submit only forms 1, 1A, and 1B, then your mailing deadline is Feb 1. If any other forms
are required for your project, your mailing deadline is Dec. 1.
If you merely want to ask a question about a prospective project, you may contact
the SRC
by email at any time. Simply visit the Contact Us Page for contact information.
The NJRSF is a high school student science competition in which
students, individually or in groups, present a wide variety of
projects. Most of the projects are investigative in nature,
posing and attempting to answer some question or problem, either
through experimentation and design or in a theoretical sense.
All areas of science, math, and engineering are included.
The fair accepts entries from ten counties of northern New
Jersey: Bergen, Essex, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Passaic,
Somerset, Sussex, Union, and Warren.
The banner frame (above) gives useful navigation links for this
website.
Note: Students in other NJ counties not covered
by another ISEF affiliated fair, may enter the NJRSF.
At this time, all counties south of Mercer are covered by the
Delaware Valley Regional Science Fair, run by Henry Disston,
disstonh@drexel.edu.
The fair provides the only route for students from these ten
counties to gain entry to the Intel International Science and
Engineering Fair (ISEF), administered by Science Service in
Washington, DC. A list of helpful links are given below
for information on these associated entities.
The most important emphasis for the fall is on
registration of projects
and
getting students started on projects.
One very important element of this process lies in the
proper processing of the
ISEF Certification Forms,
which are due Dec. 1.
There is also a
discussion of our judging process
which will be of interest to everybody concerned.
