(If you mean the council/board signatures, he's fine. Also, your area may have different rules on when exactly it's too late.)

I cut it close too--3:00 PM the day before I turned 18. If you want Eagle, DON'T cut it close! Being close is going to raise your stress level significantly. You really don't want that. I've been warning some of the younger Scouts I know to start work now so they don't rush.
