    Common Questions

Who can renew? toggle arrow
Adult members can renew themselves and any members of their household. Troop leaders can renew themselves and members of their troop (both adults and youth). 
How do I pay for renewal? toggle arrow
We encourage troops to use troop funds to pay for their membership renewals. Renewal can be paid online through MyGS using a credit card. Additional payment options include Financial Assistance and Program Credits. 
To request financial assistance to pay for your renewal, select the Financial Assistance option on the payment screen. Financial assistance is available for annual membership renewal for both youth and adults. It is not available for Lifetime Memberships. 
To use Cookie Credits, Fall FUNds, or Juliette Program Credits to pay for your renewal, select the Program Credits option on the payment screen. Then submit the Program Credit Redemption Form. Renewal is not complete until credits are received and applied. 
How do graduating Girl Scout Seniors renew as adults? toggle arrow
Graduating Girl Scout Seniors can be renewed by their caregiver in MyGS. They will be given the option to purchase an adult annual membership or a Young Alum Lifetime Membership. Details about Young Alum Lifetime Memberships are sent to graduating seniors the spring of their senior year. 
What if my troop is disbanding or my troop of 12th graders are all graduating? toggle arrow
If your troop will not be continuing next year (either because it is disbanding, or the troop members will be graduating) please complete the Troop Disband Form.
