Attendance at Merit Badge College is not a guarantee that the selected Merit Badges will be completed.  Scouts will only be given credit for requirements completed during MBCollege instruction.  Any requirement not covered during MBCollege will need to be finished by the Scout before or after attending the event.  Scouts will need to work with a Merit Badge Counselor within their unit, district, or Council to sign off these requirements to complete their Merit Badge.
