Am I too old to go back school?

Hello all! I will be 38 next month and finishing up my Associate's Degree. Back when everyone else was going to school, I opted to work, get married, etc. All my choice, however, looking back I regret a few of my decisions. I have the opportunity to pursue a Bachelor's Degree starting in August however, it will take 2.5 to 3 years. To be honest, I feel like I am too old to be doing this. I WANT to do this, but I feel like everyone around me will be 20 years old and have a better chance because they are just starting out. I would be around 40-41 when I finish, compared to others who would be 22. Not sure why this is bothering me, maybe because I feel like I messed up by not going when everyone else was...however....that was then, I need to worry about NOW.

Thanks for reading.
