Reaching the Top

The rank of Eagle Scout is the highest and most prestigious achievement a  Scout can achieve. Highly respected, the title of Eagle Scout carries with it a special significance not only in Scouting, but also in school, business and the community for a lifetime. To attain Eagle, a Scout must earn at least 21 merit badges, display leadership and outdoor skills, demonstrate by example the Scout Oath and Law and complete a comprehensive service project in the community.

Extensions are available only to youth members who qualify under the three tests listed In the new guide material.

Extensions that were approved under the COVID-19 authority remain valid until their deadline date.
