No. Anyone can have a calling to serve at anytime.

I've heard no age limit, but I'm doubting that. Can't believe they would accept anyone over 60. Also heard a woman can be a widow and join. Cool, huh? Did you try the Catholic website? http://www.vocationguide.org

I really dont think their is a problem with you becoming a nun at any age, you can use a serach engine either google or www.askjeeves.com

Since many Nun's have a Vow of Silence, They won't tell you.

I have no idea, but I think it is either 18 or 21. I'd say it may depend on the group. I'm not Catholic, Apostolic. Therefore, I know no Catholic websites @ all.
