    I will be 24 by the time I am out there if I get accepted, and I know for a fact there are a few other applicants in the UK who are older than me, by a few years!

    Never too old if you ask me :)

    Yes, go for it. I'm 29 and got my face to face on the 21st, so if they will give me a chance there is no reason your age should be a problem. :)

    This question has been asked many times and age does not matter at all... I was 25 when i started the international program and i worked with people older than me by up to 5 years!!

    I think thats great that there is lots of room for age differences and no SET age you have to be (aside from being at least 18).

    I was 22 and turned 23 when I was out there. A lot of the Brits at that time were around that age too as lot had done what I did and wait until finishing Uni before going out to Florida. ;D

    I don't mean to sound like a heavy drinker but it did matter to me to be over 21 out there as I had spent time at summer camp in the states before that when I was under 21 and it was horrible not to be able to even go into some bars or clubs never mind have a drink! I would have hated been under 21 at Disney and have had to miss out on places like Jellyrolls and House of Blues where I had many a great night!!!! In saying all that there were a lot of people who were under 21 too when I was there and it didn't spoil their year. Although I have to say the Commons sounds a lot stricter now than it was a few years ago with regard to underage drinking!!!!

    Laura. ;D

    Ah............what a great day that was!!!! I remember sneaking a frozen margharita from Mexico out of Epcot in my bag!!! ???Then making a mad dash back to the Commons to get changed and running straight to PI after that mammoth drinking session around the world!!! I have a funny drunken picture of me, you and Caroline with the Genie! ;D
    Great memories!!!!
