About: Science fair is a life-changing event for millions of students worldwide. The opportunity to engage in genuine research about a topic of interest while meeting like-minded students, winning awards, and earning a platform is unmatched! ScienceFair.io -- a platform for students interested in science fair, is hosting a winter intensive bootcamp to get you ready for success in this year’s science fair season. We have 7 science fair veterans teaching these gamechanging sessions.

FAQs & Logistics
When will the sessions be?
Seven sessions will take place from February 8th to February 14th, 2025.
Please scroll down to the below "Meet the Coaches" section to see the specific sessions and their timing

Sessions will be recorded and shared to registrants in case you miss one.
What are the sessions about?
Scroll down below to see our coaches and which sessions they'll be teaching!
How do I know these sessions will be good?
Learn from past science fair veterans who have: won Regeneron ISEF, Regeneron STS, National JSHS, Broadcom MASTERS, 3M Young Scientist Challenge; published papers in journals and conferences; now college students doing research at top institutions such as Harvard and MIT; who were previously a student in YOUR shoes!
Do I have time to register?
Our programs typically sell out very quickly. We would suggest registering as soon as possible. We want to keep the cohort small so we can engage with every student individually as well.
Will I get the opportunity to ask questions?
Sessions will each be one hour long, with 45 minutes of presentation and 15 minutes for Q&A.
What else is included?
Additional templates and resources will be given to students to complement sessions
What is ScienceFair.io?
The world's largest science fair support platform for ambitious STEM students
Can I get a refund?
Yes, but only by January 29th (so we have ample time to offer a spot to a student on the waitlist).
I have questions!
