Is There a Graduation Ceremony?

I mean given the low number of sims graduating with yours, a real event would look lifeless.

There were only 6 sims, including mine, throwing hats in the air in my game.

It was quite sad.

Incorrect. There is a graduation ceremony.

Spoiler

You get a degree and a photo of your sim in a gown holding their degree as well.

Is there now? Show it to me then. :expressionless: :expressionless: :expressionless: Oh that's right...you can't because there isn't one mr "incorrect". It's a rabbit hole.

It's still a ceremony. Just a rabbit hole one. But the graduates show up early to huddle and talk excitedly about the graduation. They throw the caps afterward and you receive the grad. photo and diploma. There's also an interaction on the diploma to talk about your college experience. I think it's an extremely well done, satisying graduation despite being 'just a rabbit hole.' My only gripe is that I don't see a way to invite friends and family.

ETA: It's clear that you haven't played the pack yourself, but at least try not to spread false information about it.

That would have been cool to add the part of family attending graduation. I mean I guess you could throw a party but there isn't even a option to have a graduation party.

I usually just throw a house party or restaurant party while my sim is still in the gown. But I feel like there has to be a way to get family into the ceremony. I don't recall if the Guru's confirmed it's not possible? I've tried inviting family over right before the ceremony, but too late I realized they were in the quad playing juice pong, lol.

Bummer. You'd think at the very least there'd be the option to throw a party like there was before.

My Sims were able to throw a party the night before. They managed to get a Gold Award for it, too. My Cantrells really know how to get their party on. LOL

Yes, there is. Right after they get their grades and the pop-up says they're graduating the next day, it also invites you to throw a party. I went into the Events calendar and there's a graduation party available. I quickly set it up and my guys had a rocking, roaring time. Got a Gold Award out of it.

I still go there, even if we can't go inside with our sim. It's nice seeing them group up with other graduates before entering, all wearing their graduation attire. Afterwards they still wear their robes, and you can go to a community lot to celebrate if you like. My sims still wore their robe when returning back to their hometown, so you might even throw a party there, but there's no set up / "throw grad party" event offered by the game. But hey, it's not that hard to gather a few friends at home or on town. I never bothered though, playing rotationally it's actually a "phew done" when they graduate, rather wanna go on playing other events.

You may not have the option to throw a Post-Graduation party, but you're invited to throw one the night before the graduation. I took the option and my Sims despite being terrified for their younger sister's well-being, had a blockbuster of a party. :)

Hmm? I've had multiple graduations and never saw anything like this. There's a new party for graduations?

Wow I never knew there was a pre-graduation party. Even in the live stream, they said there wasn’t a new party type added. I’ll have to keep a look out for it next time!
