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.
