Key Merit Badge Rules

“
  • "Any Boy Scout may earn any merit badge at any time. You don't need to have had rank advancement to be eligible."
  • "Scoutmaster will give you the name of a person from a list of counselors." (Note that the Scoutmaster thus picks the counselor, not the Scout)
  • "You must have another person with you at each meeting with the merit badge counselor."
  • "You are expected to meet the requirements as they are stated—no more and no less. You are expected to do exactly what is stated in the requirements."
  • Note that some Merit Badges Require Prior Approval‎ for certain requirements. The rest do not: " Any Boy Scout may earn any merit badge at any time...You are expected to meet the requirements as they are stated—no more and no less." - Boy Scout Requirements p. 22 - 23.
  • The use of Merit Badge Worksheets cannot be added as a requirement by a counselor.
  • See the Merit Badge FAQ for answers to many common questions.
