The following table lists the projects recorded in the CSSF database to date according to the fair which they represent. This table is believed to be a correct representation for each listed fair, though it is not at this point an official count. The identified fair is initially the fair claimed by each applicant in his/her application. As this is sometimes in error, corrections are made as the eligibility of each applicant is verified. Persons interested in the likelihood of alternates or late applications being accepted from a particular fair should compare the total project count with the allocation for that fair listed in the final column.

Please note that this table lists only those fairs with at least one project representing it already in the database.
The “Project Count” includes all projects from each fair, regardless of whether a submitted project is qualified or on the fair's alternates list, and regardless of whether or not deadlines have been met. In the case of team projects, the submission date for the project is the earliest submission date of any member of the team (and similarly for payment of the Application Fee). Where the count exceeds a fair's allocation given next to it, some projects from that fair will necessarily not be accepted. Unutilized allocations from one affiliate will not be transferred to any other affiliate.
All acceptance decisions will be communicated directly to each student at the email address provided in his/her application on their fair's Decision Date. The Decision Date for each affiliated fair is either 7 days after its Submission Deadline or Sunday, May 1, whichever comes first.
