I think it is more of an issue for sororities than fraternities, frankly.
Go for it, and good luck.
Yeah, I know several older fraternity men. And guys tend to stick around longer than girls do--maybe because they can. Sometimes its a maturity thing. If you don't mind hanging out with 18-19-20 year olds, I don't think it would be a problem at all.
Even in my sorority we had a sister (she just graduated and went alum) who was 25/26 when she joined. She made friends with some of the older girls, to be certain, but I never really felt like she was older than me. There are older women that go through, but they generally don't stick it out--maybe they don't want to hang out with a bunch of fresh-out-of-high-schoolers.
