Official notes (part of the rank requirements)

AGE REQUIREMENT ELIGIBILITY. Merit badges, badges of rank, and Eagle Palms may be earned by a
registered Boy Scout, Varsity Scout, or Venturer. He may earn these awards until his 18th birthday. Any
Venturer who achieved the First Class rank as a Boy Scout in a troop or Varsity Scout in a team may
continue working for the Star, Life, and Eagle Scout ranks and Eagle Palms while registered as a Venturer up
to his 18th birthday. Scouts and Venturers who have completed all requirements prior to their 18th birthday
may be reviewed within three months after that date with no explanation. Boards of Review conducted
between three and six months after the candidate's 18th birthday must be preapproved by the local council.
A statement by an adult explaining the reason for the delay must be attached to the Eagle Scout Rank
Application when it is submitted to the Eagle Scout Service. The Eagle Scout Service at the national office
must be contacted for procedures to follow if a board of review is to be conducted more than six months
after a candidate's 18th birthday.

If you have a permanent physical or mental disability, you may become an Eagle Scout
by qualifying for as many required merit badges as you can and qualifying for
alternative merit badges for the rest. If you seek to become an Eagle Scout under this
procedure, you must submit a special application to your local council service center.
Your application must be approved by your council advancement committee before you
can work on alternative merit badges.
