For time out of mind, the minimum age to be ordained to the Catholic priesthood has been 25. Since the Council of Trent, there have been a minimum of 7-8 years of education (post-secondary
school) required. In other words, in modern language, a four year post-graduate
theology degree is required before ordination to the priesthood, which assumes that you have a four year undergraduate degree before you start. If you graduate from high school at sixteen, and finish all of your college and graduate work in eight years you would be twenty-four,
and there is a possibility that Rome would issue a dispensation for someone who was one year short of the age limit, although I am not familiar with any cases.
