Age (in most cases) is meaningless. There of course is the story of the 17/19 year old that was rejected from a PhD program because of her age; however on the flip side I’ve met PhD candidates in their 50’s.

Age isn’t going to sink this fellows ship. By the time hes starting research he’ll be in his early 30’s, which is still quite young.
