[ Angus is going anon for this one! He's got some tentative research to do. ]

Hypothetically speaking, how old does someone have to be to apply for college, or to take classes at a university? Is there a minimum age, or does it depend on whether or not you understand the material?

If you understand pre-requisites and have demonstrated that through other classes, there shouldn't be a reason why you can't apply.

Surely there must be a test-out option?

How old are you by the way?

I doubt there's an age difference large enough between us to warrant you calling me "sir".

[Gansey is both amused and disturbed by the thought. He's been here a while after all.]

I’m certainly not one to fault for politeness. I’m 19.

[In fact, Gansey was brought up to be the epitome of diplomatic politeness. That’s what happens when both your parents are successful politicians.]

I understand the feeling.

It's nice to meet you Angus. Any particular reason you're asking about college courses, or simply academic pursuit?

Your usual field? You must be considerably specialized considering your age.

[It's not meant to demean at all--rather to praise.]

I see.

I understand both where you're coming from but also where they're coming from. More education would certainly be a worthy addition to your repertoire and resume.
