Sims 4 university not graduating

I'm still trying to figure this out. Best set up i've found so far is enrolling on a Tuesday so your term starts and ends on Wednesday (this will be your graduation day) When i first played I tried 3 credits stretched over 4 terms but no graduation notice would pop up. I finally got a graduation notice when i did the recommended 4 credits in 3 terms. After completing all 12 credits on Tuesday around 6pm I would get a report card, and instead of the box asking if i wanted to continue it would say I graduated. There is a notification that says your graduation will be the next day and to check your calendar for the time. (for me if there is a holiday on grad day I just erase it and fill it in later to not interfere with the graduation) I try to get to the campus several hours early, near the time of graduation a notification pops up and asks if you want to participate. My sim goes to the building closest to the commons room (Brite) swishes into a cap and gown, then I click on the stadium an option comes up that's says something like Attend Graduation. You go in for a bit, come out and then a group of graduates forms together and throws their caps. Afterwards I believe you get another notification that tells you that you graduated where you receive a picture and diploma in your inventory, the careers you earned should be available under their specific name not field, like private attorney will be available as private attorney and not under the law career. I have only played with a single sim attending university. A glitch (or my computer being mean to me) I have encountered is my sim taking too long to change into his cap and gown and miss the graduation, another where he would not enter the stadium and then miss the graduation again. The most frustrating was not getting the graduation notification at all but that hasn't happened to me since i started attending the full term, 4 credits 3 terms.
