Yes, you are eligible to apply for master's programs in both Germany and the Netherlands at age 37. Neither country sets an upper age limit for master's admissions - universities focus on your academic background, work experience, and language proficiency instead.

However, some scholarships or financial aid options may have age-related restrictions or require that only a certain number of years have passed since your last degree. These are exceptions and do not affect general admission eligibility.
