Do you mean in terms of being able to choose/reject Christ or just adulthood in general?

The latter.

Ok

In the Calvinist tradition there isn't a set age. One can become a member of the church whenever the elders feel you are mentally and spiritually mature enough. Typically this is around 16-18, although I've seen kids as young as 14 get confirmed. Personally, I was 16.
