Is Eagle Scouts considered a leadership position by colleges ?

Yes. If you make it to an Eagle Scout level in the Boy Scouts of America, that is a very good leadership extracurricular on your common app application.

Hope that answers your question.

It sometimes is, however, no matter what, you should list Eagle Scout on your resume. That is a very high honor, and colleges and even employers know that.

Eagle Scouts is considered a leadership position, and a good one at that! Colleges will appreciate seeing the activity in your application. Hope this helps!
