The total display space available to the fair this year is approximately the same as in 2018 because, while the King Tut exhibit has left the Science Center, we will also not have some of the “emergency” space that was allocated to us in recognition of the temporary exhibit’s usage. Therefore, the total allocation to our affiliates will also be approximately the same as in 2018. Allocations this year have changed only for those fairs with significant structural changes.
It is the continuing intention of the California Science & Engineering Fair to balance the competing goals of raising the quality of projects exhibited at the Fair, providing opportunities for participation to students without an established history of strong science fairs in their geographical region, and fairly recognizing all affiliates, large and small, urban and rural, well- and poorly-supported, throughout the entire State of California. Built into these allocations is the assumption that a certain fraction will not be utilized, so that the total of all allocations is significantly greater than our participation target. Therefore, unutilized allocations of one affiliate will not be reassigned to another.
In cases where these allocations cause extreme difficulties, affected affiliates are urged to contact us immediately. However, significant alterations from the table below will not be possible.
