I am a 50 years old entrepreneur. I have returned to school for a second career. I will graduate with an ABA this fall. I recently went to a transfer open house at a four year collage. I spoke with a professor in the engineering dept. and became interested. I am thinking of changing my major to engineering, but I would graduate at 53 years old, will I be too old to make it in engineering?

I would not recommend the effort unless you plan to work at least 10-15 years beyond graduation. Engineering school is very challenging. The required math & science reqmts would have been a killer for me when I was your age. I got through it in my 20's but would not have made it at 50.

I just retired as a civil engineer.
