Default Capt Upgrade requirments

HI
I am CFI 850tt 110multi trying to get a commuter job, I am just turning 21 next week and if I were to get hired in the next couple months by someone like colgan or commutair that have quick upgrade times, could I upgrade before I turn 23 if I meet all the requirments and have taken ATP practical and got the letter of competency? The only reason I would be unable to get my ATP and upgrade would be because of age? Can they and do they get waivers from the FAA for upgrades like that? Probably wih my experience two years is probable realistic to meet insurance requirments for PIC but I was just curious? Might be considering COLGAN. Their upgrades are 12-15months ( So I have heard).

Thanks in advance

Chris
