5 Movies That Accurately Reflect Post-Grad Life

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Framingham chapter.

The Devil Wears Prada

While I highly doubt next year I will be going to Paris and wearing the CHANEL boots, this film accurately reflects a post graduate going for a job that does not pay well, has awful hours, and isn’t even what you’re interested in. However we all know what it’s like to start from the bottom just in case it opens doors.

Adventureland

Some of the jobs we have after undergrad are not even close to what we dreamed of during our four years in college.

Post-Grad

The title says it all. In this movie, Alexis  Bledel plays a new graduate with specific plans for herself after college. However, none of them go according to plans, which any graduate can relate to.

Kicking and Screaming

After you graduate you’re probably going to reflect a lot on your time in college. You might just miss it enough you wish you could go back.

Pitch Perfect 3

Sometimes you want to go back in time to reunite with friends and not deal with the “real world.” Maybe sing some acapella pop hits, too.
