IT IS BY NO MEANS ABSOLUTE, BUT IT DOES GIVE AN INDICATION OF DIFFERENT AGE LIMITS.

Disclaimer: All information has been provided by schools.  In some cases, schools in the same country listed conflicting information. This could be due to different laws/rules applied to different schools; varying interpretations of the question; different states within a country having different laws; out of date information, or; ignorance of the law.  In most cases, varying replies from schools in the same country closely grouped around a given point.

Variance within the region can best be explained by one school that wrote “Age restriction 59 yrs at the point of gaining initial entry visa at the start of the contract . . .”  Thus, some schools may move that back as it often takes time to get a visa, while other schools might have set an older age based on when a visa expires.  A few schools may have “connections” with their Ministry of Immigration that allow them to hire a few people (generally senior-level administrators) who are older than the published age.  Thus, there can be exceptions.
