Once the Sim has graduated, it shows how many hours are left until he or she must leave campus. For young adults, the age bar does not display how many days are left in the stage, but displays what year of college the young adult is currently in (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior) and how many hours until their next final exam. Rather than being measured in days, the young adult stage is measured in semesters. Regardless of aspiration, young adults with teen friends may have wants for those friends to go to college.īecause the young adult stage is directly linked to college, it works a bit differently than the other five stages. They move slightly slower than elder Sims, and significantly slower than adult Sims, with a 'slouchy' walking animation.
On close examination, their faces may appear younger. Young adults look like adults, but they have teen voices. When a teen Sim moves out to go to college, they transition into a young adult and remains one for the duration of their college years. A teen Sim (right), supported by her father, is about to transition to a young adult and go off to college
