Age limitations, or age limits for short, are laws, rules or recommendations which detail the age a person has to be in order to access something or the age at which they are no longer eligible. Age limits can apply to minors' access to movies and video games, but can also regulate a person's opportunity to obtain a driver's license, buy tobacco and alcohol, incur debt, and enter into marriage. Other important age limits are the age of consent, criminal age of responsibility and the age of majority that, among other things, determine the minimum age for voting in political elections. Both lower and upper age limits can restrict what a person can and cannot do. As an example, blood donors in the United Kingdom who have never given blood before must be at least 17 years of age and below 66.[1]
Universities
In the United States, a person has to be at least 17 years old to attend university.[2]
