Hello,
Each college has it's own eligibility criteria. Few colleges has minimum and maximum age limit for admission in to a particular course while few colleges does not keep bar on age. So you need to check the eligibility requirements and the age criteria. If you fullfill the age requirement you can surely get admission in that particular college.
Now, coming to gap in education and year of passing in the qualifying exam, it is same as in the case of eligibility criteria and age requirement. A gap in education is permitted in few colleges. As you haven't mentioned specific college, if you can specify any particular college we can provide you the eligibility criteria and can say if you eligible to apply for admission or not. We are looking forward to help you if you can provide a specific college.
