Q: Is it common for middle-aged Chinese to pursue studies?
My older brother just returned to university and it kinda got me thinking about whether or not this was at all common in China, for people to stop working for a year, or to do night classes at university later in their lives.

Form my understanding, there is an age limit;25 for undergrad, 35 for masters/Ph.D.

no it's actually very uncommon. Chinese has a saying 人过三十不学艺 which means people can't learn any skills after they pass thirty years old . it's obviously wrong but that's how people say it . the communist party officials are required to study in their socialism schools sometimes but who the hell knows what they do there .
