Milestone
10.2.0.2. The member may keep advancing, including Eagle and Palms
Required
Members approved for registration beyond the age of eligibility may continue working on advancement, including the Eagle Scout rank and Eagle Palms, for as long as they continue to be so registered.
Notes and warnings
Note. Because they are considered youth members while so registered, an Eagle candidate does not need a time extension, and needs no special permission for an Eagle Scout board of review held more than 24 months after the 18th birthday. Alternative merit badges may be applied for like any other member.
