'''Young adult''' is a [[life stage]] in [[The Sims (series)|''The Sims'' series]], 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]], he or she transitions into a young adult and remains one for the duration of his or her 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>

▲an the other five stages. Rather than being measured in days, the young adult stage is measured in semesters. 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. Once the Sim has graduated, it shows how many hours are left until he or she must leave campus. If the Sim is on academic probation, the bar will be red instead of white.
Young adults can only use [[Clothes#The Sims 2|clothing]] which is bought on college community lots. They have some unique outfits, and many - though not all - adult outfits are available to them. In addition, since they use adult bodies, [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]] can be used to make [[Custom content|custom]] clothing made for adults available to them, and much custom clothing for adults is also flagged as being available to young adults. There is a [http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,1243.0.html mod] that will allow clothes for young adults to be worn by adults, and vice-versa. It will also make young adult and adult clothes available for elders.
