Students may enter many different fairs in the state of Iowa -- many areas/schools host their own local or conference fairs. The SSTFI and both of Iowa's Regional Fairs are affiliated with the Intel International Science & Engineering Fair (ISEF). As affiliate fairs all three send students to ISEF.
Students may attend ONE Regional fair and the State fair.
The SSTFI is open to any student attending school in the state of Iowa. Participation in any other fair in Iowa is not a prerequisite for attending the SSTFI. Students do not need to advance from any other fair to participate in the SSTFI -- however, participation in other fairs is highly encouraged!
(Many local schools/teachers have their own way of determining which students will advance to certain levels and we ask that students follow any local guidelines their school or teacher may utilize.)
State Science + Technology Fair of Iowa -- Ames
The Iowa FFA Agriscience Fair is also open to any student in the state of Iowa -- students are not required to be FFA members; however, only FFA members are eligible to advance to the
National Agriscience Fair held at the National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana each October.

In Iowa, any student may participate at ONLY ONE of the Regional fairs --
students need to be in one of the Iowa counties that Regional fair has
listed as being in their area as designated by the Intel International
Science & Engineering Fair.
