Scouts BSA Advancement

Scouts BSA advancement consists of several ranks: 

• Scout 
• Tenderfoot
• Second Class
• First Class
• Star
• Life
• Eagle

In addition to rank advancement, Scouts have the opportunity to earn Merit Badges (MBs), which help them develop & demonstrate skills in specialized interest areas. For example, to become an Eagle Scout, a Scout must earn 21 MBs, 13 of which are required (with 3 of those having alternate choices) and 8 of which are of the Scout's choosing. In addition, earning MBs beyond those required for Eagle allows the Eagle Scout to be eligible for Eagle Palms.
