'''Young adult''' is a [[life stage]] in [[The Sims (series)|''The Sims'' series]], that was first introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'' as an optional life stage when a [[teen]] Sim goes off to college. In ''[[The Sims 3]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4]]'', it returns as the fifth life stage experienced by all Sims.

When a [[teen]] Sim moves out to go to [[College (sub-neighborhood)|college]], hethey or she transitionstransition into a young adult and remains one for the duration of his or hertheir college years.
 
Young adults look like [[adult]]s, but they have teen [[voice]]s. On close examination, their faces may appear younger. They move slightly slower than elder Sims, and significantly slower than adult Sims, with a "slouchy" walking animation.<ref group="n">There is a [http://www.simbology.com/smf/index.php?topic=13.0 mod] that will remove the slouchy walking animation from young adults, making them walk slightly faster than adults, but slightly slower than teens.</ref>

Sim semesters last for 72 hours each, and there are 8 semesters in a full college experience, meaning that under normal circumstances the young adult stage actually lasts 24 days. Dropping out, getting expelled, or getting put on academic probation can alter this. Sims also have the option of staying an additional 72 hours to say goodbye and hold a [[graduation]] [[party]]. Completing each of the 4 years brings a very valuable upgrade to a Sim's capabilities:
