Early Graduation.

@crebo19 i just did that with my teen sim. No, she did not age up; in fact, the notice I got said she could attend university as a teen. Haven't signed her up yet so we'll see. The one confusing thing was when when I did early graduation I got a notice saying she dropped out & might not be able to go to uni, but then got the notice she could attend as a teen.

University as a teen?! Thats awesome!

I'm still enjoying high-school life so I'll hold off for now.

Yay!!! That would be so cool! I was hoping that that would be possible.

I had my sim graduate early. She could go to college or get a job. I aged her to young adult because I wanted to see if she kept the graduated early trait and she did.

My Sim talked to the principal about graduating early. Notification came up that she was graduating, there would be no ceremony, they would receive their diploma, would no longer be a student and could pursue the career of their choosing. When she got home there was a notification she'd dropped out, would not receive a diploma and would need to take online classes. There is no option to take online classes. Additionally, in the career tab she is still listed as a high school student but was demoted from an A to a B student.

Has anyone played with a teen in University yet? I want to know if the early graduate teen will be the only teen amongst young adults in Uni, in the dorms, or if there will also be other teens living there? If my sim is the only teen in Uni I'd rather wait to enroll her until she's a young adult..

I have had my teen apply, I had my teen get accepted, I had my teen enroll.

So, you can enjoy university life as a teen!


The drop out message, I think I might know why this happens (it is my guess though). Dropping out is high school equivalent of quitting a career and getting expelled is high school equivalent of getting fired from a career. As there isn't career equivalent of graduating early, it shows the dropping out message as it removes the sim from high school.
But don't worry. As long as the career panel shows they graduated early, you're OK.

I got the same and she's attending uni but no highschool diploma because it said she dropped out and im like graduating early and dropping out are two completely different things!!! I just want her diploma because she was in school getting awesome grades only to not get anything??? I'm sorry they need to take a look at that.

I just did a post about early graduation if you want to take a look at it. Though you guys covered a lot of it here.
