Rochester Police Expand Applicant Age Limit to 43

Written by on July 16, 2025

The Rochester Police Department (RPD) is actively seeking new recruits and has extended the maximum age to apply from 35 to 43. The change, driven by new state legislation, is intended to broaden the pool of potential candidates interested in law enforcement careers. Applications for the next police exam are currently open, with a deadline of August 22. Officials hope the age extension encourages more mature applicants with diverse life experience to join the force. The change is part of ongoing efforts to address staffing challenges and increase representation within the department.
