'''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.
Line 24:
#Cum Laude - 3.7~3.8 GPA
===Graduation
[[Image:Graduating sims.jpg|thumb|300px|Two Sims hugging each other when graduating.]]
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.
Line 35:
Being a college graduate also allows a Sim to enter the high-paying [[Artist]], [[Natural Science]], [[Paranormal#The Sims 2|Paranormal]], and [[Show Business]] career tracks.
==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.▼

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.▼
The graduation is usually held at [[City Hall]], in the morning of the day after they become young adults. There will be another notification, and grads will change into a graduation robe. On the graduation day, all Sims in the household will get a day off, and all other child or teen Sims in the household will get a day off from school.▼
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.▼
==The Sims 3: University Life==▼
<p style="font-weight:normal;">Graduation ceremonies in ''University Life'' take place on the Saturday after the graduating Sim's finals. After the Sim finishes their finals they'll receive their diploma on that same Friday or Saturday. If they receive their diploma on Friday, they'll be able to invite fellow Sims to the graduation ceremony. They will still be able to invite Sims if they receive their diploma on a Saturday, but the invited guests may not arrive on time.</p>▼
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
<p style="font-weight:normal;">On graduation day, Sims should arrive early outside the school's Annex and successfully attend the ceremony - failure to do so may result in them being unable to obtain the extra trait. Unlike ''The Sims 2'', graduates are only given a few hours to say their goodbyes before being sent home.</p>▼
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.▼
<p style="font-weight:normal;">Upon arrival back to their home neighborhoods, the Sims will have higher salaries in jobs that pertain to their degrees.</p>▼

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Sims who have already attended the University can enroll again from their phones.</p>▼
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]].

Some bugs with graduation have been reported.

* Sims enrolled in [[Boarding School]] come back home before their graduation, and never graduate or they graduate from Community High School, not from the [[Boarding School|boarding school]] they were once enrolled in.▼

▲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.
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.
▲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[[File:Graduation&protest.jpg|thumb|A Sim is going to graduate while there's a [[City Hall#Protest|protest]] held at [[City Hall]].]] also the Valedictorian [[moodlet]], which lasts 10 days. Regular grads will receive the I Graduated moodlet, which also lasts 10 days. In addition, all grads have the chance to get another medal, as they're nominated for things, such as "Most Likely to Take Over the World" or "Most Likely to Write Best-Selling Novels". Grads also get a framed graduation diploma and have the option to "Toss Diploma", which later can be found in their [[inventory]].
