2025 PA Dutch Council Merit Badge College Prerequisite List

Scouts will have the opportunity to work towards 1-5 merit badges at the college. All merit badges will have prerequisites that need to be completed BEFORE the day of the college. Even though there is a charge for the college, there is no guarantee that you will complete the merit badge- a partial completion is acceptable, but it is up to the scout to find a counselor to complete the work. Each scout must complete each requirement as written. Classes are being led by certified merit badge counselors.

There will be intersession merit badges available. These merit badges include: American Heritage, Bird Study, Collections, Digital Technology, Dog Care, Fingerprinting, Genealogy, Pets, Reading, Scholarship, and Veterinary Medicine. Merit Badge Counselors for these badges will be available in the lobby to sign off on COMPLETED requirements for these badges. Bring evidence that you have completed ALL requirements. Pre-registrations is not required for these badges.
