You are at the perfect age to continue your education. You have some real life working experience which will come in handy while getting your graduate degree. Think of it this way, you're only halfway to retirement. You've got another 33 years and only need 2 years to get your graduate degree.
I can tell you this. I'm 50 and went back for my degree only a couple of years ago. I can't beleive what I missed out on and would have been invaluable when I was 35.

there is no age limit. If you don't want to go for Master or PhD (2-4 more years) , you can always go for some short courses to get Certificates. I don't know what you major in, but for Computer Science, you can always get certified in A+, Linux, Microsoft... it takes only a few month and you will get more $$$
Good luck!

this is the right time. jump into whatever you feel is most appealing career for you. once I met a teacher who said " I will teach you and teach you and teach you so that either you will learn or you will die ". So the art of teaching and act of learning is not constrained by time or age. Some people learn fast some learn slow..
However in your case as you seem to have been working for some time, its even better as you can use part of your saving for studies and wouldn't have to work while studying allowing you to fully concentrate in studies, implies better grades, faster graduation etc... and better grad school if you plan to go for grad school later...

We never stop learning until we die. Therefore there is no age limit.
