I don't believe there is a maximum age. After a certain age I'm sure one would not attend a standard public school, but they could still attend an alternative school to complete their studies and gain a High School Diploma. I believe graduating by 20 would be okay especially if you started the school at age 17 and you were transferred from another country. This is very understandable. Good Luck!

There are exceptions to every rule. The student would be able to graduate at the age of 20. I believe 21 is the maximum for graduating high school.

you can graduate high school at any age. however age does determine what school you have to attend. Most schools if you try to enrole at 20 they will not allow it but if you are already in the school then all is fine. you can always get a highschool diploma. age just decides how you get it. online highschools adult courses g.e.d's its all there for you. since you are only 17 they will let you in. I had a guy in my grade 10 class that turned 19 halfway trough. good luck and grab that diploma!:)

There is no such thing as a maximum age for a diploma. Most states have a maximum age for which students may attend a public day school. In New York State the maximum age is 21./
