The Young Adult life stage is a optional life stage in the Sims 2 introduced with the University expansion pack. It is a default stage in the Sims 3 which lasts for 6-255 days, depending on the lifespan settings.
[edit] The Sims 2
A Young Adult in the Sims 2 is when teenagers go to college. While at college, sim ages are counted in hours, not days. Each semester is 72 hours long and each year is two semesters long. The college years consist of Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior. If a student graduates with honors, they will find a gold star in their age indicator. If a student just graduates there will just be a icon there. If they are expelled there will be a red cross and if they drop out of college there will be a white 'o.'
If a sim fails to achieve the minimum limit (shown by a white line) they will be put on Academic Probation (repeating the semester) thus expanding the lifespan. However, if they fail a second time they will be expelled. Sims get rewards every time they complete a year. The rewards are:
Freshman = A 5th want
Sophomore = The option to change aspirations
Junior = An extra want/fear lock
Senior = A 6th want.
If a sim is expelled they will unlock a 4th fear.
