You can be a padawan of any age you like, and as for finding a master? There's many ways to do that. One of them is right here in the Roleplay Discussion forum.
Otherwise, there are a few places that Jedi call home, and they are as follows:
The Silver Sanctum Coalition - The Jedi here make up only one part of what the SSC is - a support and care contingent focused on evacuation, rescue, healing, caring for the youngest of our number, and keeping an eye on the traditional Sith Worlds. This group still has its share of defenders and warriors.
The Galactic Alliance - Here you find the New Jedi Order, and the front line of the war effort against the One Sith. Most Jedi here will be more militarized, but there are still support roles such as healers, seers, and so on.
The Jedi Order - Formerly exclusive to the Galactic Republic, these Jedi have distanced themselves somewhat, but maintained a connection to the Republic, and are finding their identity as a standalone.
The Jedi of all of these factions are connected through the
Jedi Academy Network, which networks all the academies, sanctums, enclaves, temples and so on in which the Jedi train and grow, across the galaxy, whether they are in lightside-dominated territories or not.
In all of the places mentioned above, there are Master Request threads, as [member="Lady Exedō"] has mentioned. This is where you'd post in each location. Take a look at each faction, ask questions, and find out what's the best place for you.
