USEF Now Requires Pre-Registration for ALL Senior Division Projects.
USEF has changed the process to review senior division projects and will now require ALL senior division projects to Pre-Register before attending their district level fair.
Students will log in at https://usef.utah.edu/login.
After entering an email address, students will enter their name (team projects will enter the email for the team leader) and cell phone number. A 6 digit code will be sent to the student registering.
Senior division students will enter all aspects of their project, including project title and abstract. After the student has participated at their district level fair, they will log back into their account and after receiving a new 6 digit code, they will log back in to their project where they can do the following:
Update their project title (if desired)
Update their project abstract (if desired)
Select Special Awards they qualify for
Pay their $30 per student registration fee
