In my opinion, it is never too late to start a PhD at age 45. Some I know started even at 50 years old and above although they had done well at undergraduate level and could have pursued graduate studies in their 20s or 30s, had not done so, because of various reasons.
Today many older people, of both genders are pursuing graduate studies at the older age of 40s, 50s and even 60s now. They can do that because there are:- Greater opportunities offered for people in their 40s, 50s and even 60s, to pursue Graduate studies such as Masters or PhD. Institutions will accept older students, and will also offer scholarships to them.
