I have a great opportunity that I am considering, but it would require a work commitment through September of next year. The opportunity fits into my long term goals perfectly (i.e., it would help prepare me for the career that I want post b school, which is working as an equities research analyst) as it would give me significant exposure to the markets that I want to cover. I was planning on applying this fall and then in theory would matriculate next September. The catch is that I wouldn't be able to attend class until late September. So, is this a "no-go" for applying this year if I really want to do the opportunity as most schools start the first week in September? Also, I am 29 now, will be 30 when I apply this fall, and would be 31 when I matriculate. If I have to wait a year because of the dates, then I would be one year older when I apply (31 years old). Does this change my chances much of being accepted? I know I would be at a slight disadvantage at 30, but would 31 be much of a difference from 30? I have the "why xyz school, why now," part down in the application, its just if the age is a big factor then I may not take the opportunity. Any thoughts or suggestions would be very helpful.

I guess the real question here is whether applying at 30 vs 31 will have much of an impact on my chances of getting into a top 10. Can any of the older applicants please chime in?

I can guarantee you that you won't be able to miss the month of September. I highly doubt the school will even consider it. You would end up so behind on EVERYTHING (classes, networks, clubs) that you could never catch up.
As for your second question, no 30 or 31 yrs old, it won't matter.
