If i get my permit when i am 17 and then i turn 18 before the required 6 months are up can i get my liscense?

I'm going to get my learner's permit and i am 17. In PA you have to have your permit at least 6 months before you can get your liscense. However I will be turning 18 before those 6 months are up. Can i get my liscense when i turn 18 or do i have to still wait the required 6 months? Thanks !
