High School Academic Fair
AU Scholar’s Fair
Friday, February 21, 2025 9:30 a.m.-2 p.m.
Anderson University is excited to host the AU Scholar’s Fair for students in all kinds of high school level education: homeschools, co-ops, small private schools, online schools and public schools.
This is an opportunity for high school students to present samples of their academic work and compete for recognition and scholarships. We are especially interested in serving students whose school may not be providing such an event.
There will be four categories to choose from:
- Scientific poster
- Persuasive poster
- 10-minute scientific presentation
- 10-minute persuasive presentation
Here To Serve
Pick your project, choose your topic, participate, and possibly grab a scholarship!
Categories
There will be four categories to choose from:
- Scientific poster
- Persuasive poster

Each of these will be evaluated by a college-level instructor and recognitions will be awarded. This event is limited to 50 students. It is open to all high school students but only seniors are eligible for the scholarship awards.
Awards
Awards include:
- Certificates for each level of accomplishment
- Prizes for top-category presentations
- Scholarship awards for overall winners ($5,000 for first place and two $2,500 awards for runner-ups). Scholarship winners must be high school seniors and may redeem the scholarship at Anderson University in the 2025-26 school year.
