Submit Your Eagle Scout Rank Application
This form is the official Scouting America New Hampshire portal for submitting your Eagle Scout Rank Application and requesting to schedule a Board of Review. To ensure a smooth process, we strongly recommend submitting your completed application, along with all required attachments and fulfilled requirements, through this portal on or before your 18th birthday.
Be sure your application is complete, clear, and legible before submission.
After submitting your application:
• Council Review: Applications are processed every two weeks by the Council.
• Eagle Board Review: After Council review, applications are sent to your Eagle Board.
Remember, Scouting America allows Eagle Boards of Review to take place up to 24 months after your 18th birthday, as long as all requirements were completed before your 18th birthday (unless you have an approved exception) and the application and associated documents are submitted promptly.
You, the Eagle Scout candidate, are responsible for requesting references from the four people listed on your application, and you must make a diligent effort to ensure that the letters of reference are received promptly before your Board of Review. Your references may be Scout leaders, teachers, employers, coaches, and other Scouts. You are strongly discouraged from using parents or other relatives as references. Your current unit leader and committee chair are not eligible to serve as references; their signatures on your application are their endorsement. (If either of them declines to sign your application, you must attach your explanation for the absence of the signature(s).)
