Eligibility: Who Should Enter SLVSEF?

The Salt Lake Valley Science & Engineering Fair is designed for elementary school students in currently enrolled in a public, private, parochial or charter school in the Granite, Murray, Salt Lake and Tooele School Districts. The divisions are:

• Elementary Division - Grades 5-6
• Junior Division - Grades 7-8
• Senior Division - Grades 9-12

Regional science fairs do not compete with one another. The important thing is for the student to find support, technical advisory expertise, and a fertile environment in which to compete with and learn from the community of science and engineering professionals, teachers and other students that make the experience of a science fair so rich.

Utah has four regional ISEF affiliated science fairs:
