Detailed Calculator Guide

Calendar age depends on a reference date

Age is calculated between a birth date and a selected reference date. Completed years change only when the birthday has occurred in the reference year. Day and month totals depend on calendar length and leap years.

Official rules can differ

Eligibility rules may use age on a fixed cut-off date, age at the start of an academic year or another legal definition. Use the reference date required by the institution rather than assuming today is always correct.

Privacy and verification

A date of birth can be personal information. Use the calculator locally and verify official age requirements with the relevant form, authority or institution.
