    For the FBI:

    "Be between 23 and 361/2 years of age (unless you are an 1811 federal law enforcement officer or are a preference-eligible veteran requesting an age waiver) to achieve 20 years of service prior to mandatory retirement at age 57

    Due to the length of time it takes to test, process and hire new Agents, it is not advisable that applicants over the age of 36 apply for the Special Agent position"

    Each police department has their own age limits. You would need to check the website of the departments where you are interested in applying.
