Young adults look like [[adult]]s, but they have teen [[voice]]s. On close examination, their faces may appear younger.

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.

Completing each of the 4 years brings a very valuable upgrade to a Sim's capabilities:
