Road to Eagle
Eagle Project & Eagle Application Assistance

The Eagle rank is the highest rank in Scouting. Part of earning the rank involves developing an idea for a project that will benefit your community, school (as long as it is a non-profit school), or religious institution.

Before starting on your Eagle, consider the following:

• Allow AT LEAST 6-12 months from the time you find a project until you expect to be done with it. Sometimes it will take even longer, so don't procrastinate.

• Remember you don't control much of this process. Working with an outside organization and getting the many signatures and approvals required will delay your project.

• You are leading this project, not doing it. Allow extra time to accommodate others' schedules

• You do NOT have to wait until all your merit badges are done to start your project. You can begin as soon as you are a Life Scout.

Be sure to familiarize yourself with the requirements and the Eagle Project Workbook first so you understand exactly what will be required of you.
