Eagle Scout Application Verification Submission

Step 1 of 3

Use this form to submit your application materials for Eagle Scout Rank Verification. This form is only for Verification purposes, not for Project Proposal approvals or post EBOR submissions. Documents submitted to this form are for Council Purposes only; there is a strong possibility you will submit physical copies again at your Board of Review.

Please Note: A Scout’s 18th Birthday is NOT considered an emergency and applications will not be expedited due to this date. This will not affect their ability to earn the Eagle Rank.

File Uploads

Please read the following information for each section carefully and follow the provided directions. Verification and processing will be delayed if directions are not followed.

It is REQUIRED that you type the text on the Eagle Rank Application for a clear/professional look. The most current application is available as a fillable PDF at https://www.scouting.org/programs/scouts-bsa/advancement-and-awards/resources/.

If the provided files are of poor quality (blurry, grainy, too dark/too light, etc), you will be contacted and asked to provide a better copy. These files will be repeatedly transferred back and forth electronically, so the first one provided needs to be clear. Scouting America requires that Eagle Applications are held in permanent record, so it is essential that the final copy be legible.

Eagle Rank Application(Required)

Document must be uploaded as a PDF. Please make sure all documents are facing the right direction. Please make sure no dates or signatures (up to the BSA Local Council Verification Line) are missing on your application – missing dates/signatures will hold up your verification process. You can upload the front and back of the document together as one file, or upload them individually.

I have requested reference letters from the persons listed in Requirement 2 of the Eagle Rank Application. *A minimum of 3 letters must be received at the office in order for documents to be forwarded to the District Eagle Chair and a Board of Review to be scheduled.*

YES

A Note on Reference Letters: Mail or deliver a request for a reference letter to the people listed in Requirment 2 of your Eagle Application. Include a stamped envelope addressed to the Illowa Council Service Center, 4412 N Brady St, Davenport, IA 52806. In an appropriate location on the return envelope, include “EAGLE CANDIDATE: Scout’s First & Last Name” so the envelope doesn’t have to be opened to find out who it is for. Envelopes are NOT to be addressed to the Eagle Candidate.

Physical Copies of Documents(Required)

I understand that I may be required to bring physical copies of my documents to the Board of Review even if they have been uploaded in this form. I will confirm this with the District Eagle Chair prior to the Board of Review date.
