SU PhysFest 2020 is for high school seniors interested in studying physics at Seattle University beginning in the fall of 2020. Students should have a strong interest in obtaining a degree in physics, engineering, or a related field.
An application for Seattle University must be submitted for you to be considered for participation in PhysFest. It is suggested that you have at least one of your high school physics teachers write a letter of recommendation as part of your Seattle University application. You must also fill out the PhysFest Application.
After your SU application and PhysFest Application have both been received, faculty from the Physics Department will review your information. If selected to attend, you will receive an invitation near the end of January.
SU PhysFest is free to invited attendees! Accommodations with a host student and meals are included. Partial airfare reimbursements are available; please contact us for details at beeryt@seattleu.edu.
You will be introduced to a host student when you arrive for the workshop and will stay with them on or near campus. Your interactions with your host and with other current physics students will help give you a vivid picture of what student life is like as a physics major at SU.
