Will my age be a problem down the road?

I didn’t have money to attend uni straight out of high school so i went to work blue collar jobs for some years to save up for it. Now i have 4 years’ worth of tuition money and got into a target here in Canada, the problem is: by the time I finish my bachelors, I’ll be 27…

Will that hurt my chances at high finance/IB down the road?

Like, will they care that I’d be 5 years older than my to be analyst co-workers?

Thanks in advance lads
