How do I get project pre-approvals required by ISEF Rules?
If the project you have picked must be done at a school or other facility that has an Institutional Review Board (IRB), then they should review the project and give pre-approval. Some schools that hold science fairs have their own Scientific Review Committee (SRC) and they should review those projects requiring SRC pre-approval. If your school does not have an SRC, you may submit all of the required information to our Fair Director for help with the pre-approval process.
