Young Adult
The Young Adult life stage is a optional life stage in The Sims 2. It is a default stage in The Sims 3.This life stage lasts for 24 days. A Young Adult in The Sims 2 is when teenagers go to college (The Sims 2 University is needed for this). 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 expelled there will be a red cross and if they drop out of college there will be a white 'o.'
The Sims 2
In university Sims do not have days only hours. They have 72 hours for each semester. If a sim fails to achieve the minimum limit (shown by a whit line) they will be put on Academic Probation thus expanding the lifespan. However if they fail a second time they will be expelled. Sims get rewards every time they complete a year. These are ther rewards:
Freshman = A 5th want.
Sophomore = The option to change aspirations.
Junior = Ability to lock 2 wants or fears.
Senior = A 6th want.
If a sim is expelled they will unlock a 4th fear.
