'''Graduation''' is a game event that occurs when completing university{{Vgversion|TS2:U}}{{Vgversion|TS3:UL}}{{Vgversion|TS4:DU}} or high school.{{Vgversion|TS3:G}}
==The Sims 2: University==
===Completing
[[File:Graduation.jpg|thumb|A Sim graduating.]]
Graduating from [[College (sub-neighborhood)|college]] is as simple as passing every semester. Once a Sim finishes the last final exam, the player will be told whether he or she graduated with any honors, and the Sim will be given 72 hours to pack up and leave campus.
During that 72-hour period, the player can use the [[Telephone#The Sims 2|phone]] to have the Sim move back to the main [[neighborhood]]. The player can also use the phone to throw a [[Party#The Sims 2|graduation party]]. The graduating Sim, and anyone else he or she invites, will be decked out in graduation caps and gowns, but other than that, the party will be normal. Once the party concludes, the graduated Sim will be ejected from the campus. Of course, the player can simply wait for the 72 hours to pass.

#Cum Laude - 3.7~3.8 GPA
===Graduation

After the last exam your Sim is given another 72 hours to say goodbye and have a Graduation [[Party]], complete with cap and gown. After the party, with the special event camera on, the graduated Sim will grab a close friend to take a picture with followed by the throwing of the caps in the air and the transition to an Adult. Without the special event camera, the Sim will just transition to an adult and go in the taxi cab back home.
===Post-
Prior to the ''University'' [[expansion pack]], getting a job from the [[newspaper]] always put a Sim at level 1 of the career track. Getting a job from a [[computer]], conversely, put a Sim at the appropriate level of the career track based on his or her job-related skills and number of friends, but not higher than level 6.

==The Sims 3: Generations==
Graduation returns in ''[[The Sims 3: Generations]]''. There is no specific graduation party as there is in ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', however. Teen Sims can graduate either from Community High School or [[Boarding School]] if they are enrolled in either one.
===Community High School
[[File:Graduationrobe.jpg|thumb|Community High School Graduate's Robe.]]
Teens' regular activity of going to school every morning in the school bus or doing homework as they arrive at home will end as soon they receive a graduation notification, which will happen approximately 4 days before their birthday. This notification is intended to make sure that teens have prepared as well as they can for those last days of school.
Line 45:
The grads will wait for all Sims in their household to get ready, then they will go to City Hall together. The player should wait until the graduation ceremony is over.
Grads can graduate either as a valedictorian or simply as a graduate, depending on their grades and achievement during school. If the Sim graduated with an A, they'd graduate with highest honor, B honor, C merit, D pass, and F fail. Valedictorian grads will receive the Valedictorian medal in their inventory and
After the graduation, grads' relatives will have option to "Give Graduation Gift". They will also receive graduation moodlets depending on their relation to the grads.

===Boarding School

Teen Sims enrolled in [[Boarding School]] will also graduate right after they age up. [[File:Graduateanddiploma.jpg|thumb|A Sim graduated from [[Boarding School]]: Smuggsworth Prep School.]]They will go back home, wearing special graduation robes and a diploma to display in their [[inventory]]. The graduation robes they wear is determined by the types of [[Boarding School]] they're enrolled in.
===Graduation
Some bugs with graduation have been reported.
* Sims won't have graduation ceremony after they age up.
Line 70:
Sims who have already attended the University can enroll again from their phones.
Due to a path-finding bug, having too many Sims crowding the door may prevent a graduating Sim from attending the ceremony. This is partly due to the lack of entrances into the graduation ceremony, resulting in traffic jams.

Occasionally, due to a bug, a Sim attending the graduation ceremony may come out without actually having graduated, or are missing their diploma.
===Trivia===
* On normal speed, if you move the camera close to City Hall or the Annex, you can hear "Pomp and Circumstance", a common graduation song. Additionally, the names read out over the song are those of the developers.
==The Sims 4: Discover University==
Graduation ceremonies take place the morning after a student gets notified that they have passed their remaining courses. Attendance is optional, but should the player choose to go, their Sim will be taken to their university's stadium, dress in graduation robes and join other graduates. The ceremony takes place inside the stadium, so it is not visible to the player. When the graduates emerge, they will toss their graduation caps up in the air and every graduate in the current household will be given a graduation photo.
A few hours after the ceremony, the player's household will be transported back to their home (or [[university housing]]) and diplomas will be placed in their inventories. If they live in university housing, they will have to move out to a residential lot.
