How Much Does Age Matter?

Applying to College
1

I’ll be 24 when I transfer from JUCO to undergrad. I have a 4.0 and would like to wind up in the business school at a school like UNC, Duke, UVA, Wake Forest, or UT Austin. How much does my age play a factor in whether or not I get admitted into these programs?

Age alone won’t matter at all. Some very top schools are tougher to transfer to though than Freshman admission.

Age won’t matter but transferring to Duke will be difficult. Not sure about the others.

Being age 24 can be helpful from a financial aid perspective, though.
