What's the cut off age when joining the U.S Coast Guard?

My mother in law is in the Army. Just re-enlisted and she's going on 40. You just have to be fit, that's all.

I found this information on www.uscg.mil These are the requirements. Hope this helps! And good luck!

# You must be a US citizen or a Resident Alien.
# Be between the ages of 17-27 for Active Duty. (If you are 17, you'll need parental consent.)
# Reservists must be between 17-39. Prior service personnel should contact their local recruiter for specific programs.
# Have a high school diploma. GEDs are accepted in special circumstances.
# Have no more than two dependents.
# Pass the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test.
# Pass a military entrance medical exam.
