Transferring from another unit in the Same Council

If transferring Scouts between different councils, use the Scoutbook transfer tool.

For members in the same council: Using the online transfer tool is the most efficient way to transfer a Scout from one unit to another. A paper application is not needed. A unit leader in the old unit or the parent can do the transfer.

Log into my.scouting.org Select the Menu then Select “My Application;” you can transfer yourself as an adult volunteer or your youth member from unit to unit. Unit leaders will be able to transfer youth by going to the new “Roster” feature in the Roster tool and “Organization Manager” and select the youth who need to be transferred, then click the “Transfer” icon. This will create a transfer application which will be sent to the new unit with the ability to be approved in “Application Manager”.Transfers will take 48 hours to sync with the new unit.

It will then take you to a Screen that should be 100% filled in for you to review. Then just click Submit Transfer.

Inform the Unit Leader that you have submitted an Application so they can take the needed steps
