Arrow of Light (AOL) is the highest rank attainable in the Cub Scouts program of Scouting America. Introduced in 1972 as an award for Cub Scouts who remained in the scouting program, it has since become a separate rank of its own.

The Arrow of Light rank may be earned by fifth-grade members of the Cub Scout program. Requirements include completing at least eight adventures, six of which are mandatory for the award. Unlike Scouts BSA, where scouts must complete every rank before attaining Eagle Scout, all Cub Scouts who meet the program's membership requirements may earn the AOL rank.[1]
