Will we be able to send existing YA's to uni?

I am hoping it will be handled the way it was in Sims3, where no matter what age your Sim was, they could still go to uni. In fact, time stopped in the 'real' world while a Sim was in school. That way family lives weren't irrevocably disrupted because Mom and Dad decided to go back and get their degree. I was very happy. My Sims were married with toddler twin sons.

I think some are presuming they have to be YAs, only because that's when high school is over. But, I'm curious to know if some kind of graduation notice will happen, once a teen ages to YA. Don't wish to get anybody's hopes up, but wondering (on my keyboard) how this might be handled? Right now, since my Notable Newcomer (still a teen) just perished what I should do about him. I have restarted a new game save, for now, to keep me occupied whilst I wait, but knowing I may well have to restart him again once Uni hits, I'm at a loss. Previously, (and I have played him numerous times due to the cursed nature of the fellow) I had a blog wherein he confessed to his would-be bride that he left school in his Junior year, not wishing to waste time when he was already making big Simoleons singing, and writing music. He was a Global Superstar.
