Can someone under 18 take transit tests?

I can't say for sure about now, but when the minimum age was 21, I took then test at 18 and just had to wait till I was 21 before I could actually take the job. I imagine the situation is similar now.

Thanks. The only NOEs I could find say nothing about age, only HS diploma by time of appointment.

I took it at 16, Was 18 by the time I was called (but not then living in NYC, so I passed.)

Thanks. I wonder when they did away with explicit age requirements? I took a B/O-C/r exam in the early 90s, I’m sure it had an age requirement.

You can't be hired at 16 or 17, NY State laws for operating dangerous equipment you have to be 18. Think cardboard bailer at a grocery store, 16 yr olds cannot operate those.

AFAIK living in NYC is not a requirement for NYCTA.

It depends on the NOE. If it states that you must meet certain requirements by the date of hire than, sure take it. If you must meet certain requirements by the date you file, than no, you would not be eligible to even sit for the exam.
