It may take several days for us to respond to your e-mail and we appreciate your patience.

No. Our mentors are from all across BC and sometimes from across Canada. They can help you better understand your subject or provide feedback if you are stuck, but they may not be from your area and will not be able to get you access to a lab or equipment.

There is no limit to how many questions you can ask our mentors, but you should make a good effort to figure things out on your own first. Our mentors are here to help you when you are stuck or you need some advice from an expert in your field of study. Do not be afraid to ask a question, but make sure you can demonstrate that you have put in some hard work already. Your question(s) should be focused and organized, and you should provide enough information about your project that your mentor has a good understanding of what you need.

Our mentors are only able to help students who are already developing a science fair project. At the very least, you should have your hypothesis and your project design before reaching out to a mentor. Your mentor will not give you an idea for a project, and will notdevelop your science fair project for you. They are here to help you if you run into problems.

Questions should only relate to your science fair project. Your mentor probably will not know the details of your specific science fair. For questions specific to your science fair, reach out to your regional science fair committee. See a list of regional science fair committees and their e-mail addresses.
