Scouts BSA Boards of Review

After a Scout has completed the requirements for any rank, they appear before a board of review. Its purpose is to determine the quality of their experience and decide whether the Scout has fulfilled the requirements for the rank.

Eagle Scout Boards of Review:  At least one district or council representative must serve as a member of an Eagle Scout board of review. A member of the troop committee schedules the Eagle Scout board of review.

Bring these to the Cockrell Scout Center:

  1. Eagle Scout Rank Application*
