Student: Dashboard/Uploads
- The deadline for the submission of SRC Upload and Information for Judges Upload is on January 24, 2024 at 8:00 p.m. (missing this deadline automatically fails to qualify the project).
- After a project has been registered (See How To Page for instructions on Student Registration), the individual/project leader will have the ability to upload pdf files to the Project/Student Dashboard.
- SRC PDF Upload: All items must be uploaded in ONE file as there will be only ONE upload per project. The PDF may not exceed 20MB. No interactive PDF files should be submitted. To avoid interactive forms, print and then scan as a PDF. Each project must complete this step to be assigned judges. A project without a SRC PDF will Fail to Qualify. No refund will be given. The all inclusive SRC Project PDF is a single file that contains the following, in this order:
-
- ISEF Rules Wizard printout, with the individual/team leader’s name in the upper right-hand corner.
- An updated Abstract on the ISEF 21 Category Official Abstract Form. This is an interactive form. Print completed form first, then scan as a PDF before including in upload.
- ALL ISEF and LISEF completed forms/documentation, including the Research Plan/Post Summary. Place your ISEF forms together in the order in which they appear in the ISEF Rule Book.
- Copy of research paper
- A PDF of your final Project Presentation
- Any information on the project display or items that are acknowledgments, self-promotions or external endorsements are not allowed in the presentation.
- Human Participant Consent Forms: If Human Informed Consent Forms are required, they must be submitted in a separate PDF upload on the project registration page. The PDF may not exceed 20MB.
- Information for Judges: All items must be uploaded in ONE file as there will be only ONE upload per project. The PDF may not exceed 20MB. Each project must complete this step to be assigned judges. A project without an Information for Judges PDF will Fail to Qualify. No refund will be given. The all inclusive Information for Judges PDF is a single file that contains the following, in this order:
- PDF copy of the Project Presentation
- 16 Slide/Page limit, including a title and reference slide
- Pages must be 8.5×11”
- Any information on the project display or items that are acknowledgments, self-promotions or external endorsements are not allowed in the presentation.

- Media Release Forms
- The individual/team leader must upload one PDF file, containing ALL media release forms for all students on the project. The PDF may not exceed 20MB.
- All PDF uploads are the student(s) responsibility. If the liaison elects to upload any of the uploads, any errors in doing so will be treated as a student error.
- How to upload and check on your uploaded material and remedy blank forms: Once logged in to your dashboard, students should select “Project Uploads” on the left side. Click on “Browse” to select the PDF file to upload, then click the green “Upload File” button. Once the PDF is uploaded “File Successfully Uploaded” will appear. At this time a button will appear that says “Download Current Project PDF.” Use this button to download and view the file you have uploaded which the LISEF SRC will review. If the file is not to your satisfaction, you can write over that document, by uploading a NEW, COMPLETE file.
- Follow the same procedure if the Human Informed Consent Forms must also be uploaded.
- Follow the same procedure for the Virtual Fair Information of Judges PDF to be uploaded.
- Follow the same procedure for the Media Release PDF to be uploaded.
- ***Please note that blank forms are not acceptable and count as a missing form during the SRC review process. If forms appear blank in the upload, you used an interactive PDF. You must scan any interactive forms and must submit a new upload of the entire set of forms including any forms that need to be scanned.
