Approximately 1,800 applications are received each year from some of the nation\u2019s best and brightest students.<\/p>\n Regeneron Science Talent Search Entry Requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n The Science Talent Search is open to any student in the United States or its territories in his or her last year of secondary school. Entrants must complete a rigorous application process, including a 20-page research report documenting their independent scientific research.<\/p>\n Independent individual research by thousands of students is narrowed down to 300 semifinalists. Of those, 40 finalists are chosen to compete each March in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n A history of achievement<\/strong><\/p>\n To date, 147,000 exceptionally motivated students have entered the competition.

Edward Pendray, a Westinghouse executive, and Watson Davis, director of Science Service (now Society for Science & the Public) began discussing ways to encourage more students to pursue science careers. They decided on a national competition – Westinghouse agreed to provide prize money and cover administrative costs and Science Service took on the task of running it.<\/p>\n In 1998, Intel Corporation became the title sponsor of the competition, continuing what has become an American institution designed to encourage young people to pursue careers in science, math, engineering and medicine. In 2016, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals became the next sponsor to carry on the Science Talent Search.\u201d<\/p>\n To learn more or to apply, please visit Regeneron Science Talent Search<\/a>.<\/p>\n An investment in education is an investment in the future.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Since 1985,\u00a0<\/strong>Back to Basics Learning Dynamics has been the undisputed leader in\u00a01-on-1 tutoring in Nationwide\u00a0and southeastern Pennsylvania\u00a0for over 60 subjects for children and adults, including\u00a01-on-1 SAT\/ACT\/Praxis Prep, as well as translating and interpreting in 21 languages, homebound services, RTI support, and psycho-educational testing.
