Best Answer

The BSA registration forms make race self described and optional so there are no accurate records of membership or awards / ranks sorted that way.

It is believed that Arican Americans are underrepresented in Scouting in general, a situation the BSA is actively attempting to correct, with about 11% of scouts estimated to be African. About 4% of scouts earn their Eagle but weather an African American scout is more, equally, or less likely to attain Eagle is unknown.

Approximately 4% of American men are Eagle Scouts. The overall percentage of the entire American public that are Eagle Scouts would be much lower, considering not all Americans are male and not all American males have been in the Boy Scouts of America.

What percentage of population are eagle scouts?

The BSA states " Not every boy who joins a Boy Scout troop earns the Eagle Scout rank; only about 5 percent of all Boy Scouts do so. " In 2010 there were 898,186 Boy Scouts and 56,176 Eagle Scout awards presented, thus it would appear to be 6.2%. But male Venturers who earned First Class in a troop can continue to work towards Eagle Scout while in a crew. There were a total of 238,846 Venturers, but we don't know how many were eligible, but the percentage goes down. As of 2008 (the last year I have totals), there had been 83,486,083 Scouts since 1911 and 1,880,905 Scouts had earned Eagle Scout, making it 2.2% for the total.
