No way! I graduated university at 30. It not any easier the longer you wait, necessarily. Take your time if you need, but keep moving.
Fuck no, do what you love and what calls to you. If you haven’t found anything yet, you need to broaden your horizons.
It’s much more cut and dry than most people think. All these questions have to do more with you and what you’re willing to do than the logistics. You’ll almost always be able to work logistics out eventually so focus on the you part to make sure your “vehicle” is suitable for the terrain
I’m in my late 40s and I just got a bachelor’s degree. I just started a masters program. It’s never too late.

Don’t ever, and I mean ever, let anyone tell you that you’re too old to try something new. If anyone ever does, know, deep in your heart, that person is insecure and afraid of being their authentic self. Go forth, try new things, learn new knowledge, find out you don’t like things, sometimes get frustrated, and discover the things that make life worth living for you. You will be so much happier if you set aside what anyone else will think of you and focus on “This interests me”
I’m in my forties and your question reminds me of myself when I was your age.
My advice: don’t think it twice, just dive in.

When I was studying to get a CS degree at a major university there were many people older than 22, even a couple in their 40s. 4 years won’t slow you down.
Absolutely not! I started at 25 next to my it job, best decision ever. Tough though, already had a kid and 2nd one was born during.
Absolutely not! I started at 29 next to my it job, best decision ever. Tough though, already had a kid and 2nd one was born during.
I started doing digital design and animation at 29. Made a career out of it. I think you are safe.
If it’s something you’re passionate about, you’re never too old.
I worked with an amazing guy who worked on drill rigs up to the age of 50 and then did a computing degree. He was one of the smartest people I’ve ever worked with.
No.
Computer science is the academic name. If you’re planning on becoming a software engineer, you can also self learn that via YouTube and books; though academia does give a pretty good start.
The best time to plant a tree is yesterday. The next best time is right now.
I can only join in with the others, I started my IT bachelor at 21, finished at 25 – and was by far one of the younger students.
You’re never too old to learn.
