You have to Wiki Word the article.
The article title seems okay to me.

The problem is that 'graduation' carries different meanings. If this is going for university as well as American high schools, the description doesn't suggest that.

While "graduation" can mean many things, I highly doubt people are going to look at the title and think of markings on scientific measuring equipment. That said, this trope is definitely present in works that feature characters going through any other type of course or program, such as University/College, military/police/firefighter trainings, etc. and should be expanded accordingly. Name is fine.
"Thorough preparation must lead to success. Neglect nothing."
I was specifically talking about graduation in an educational context. If you want to expand the trope, that solves it.

There's no point in it being High School specific, since it'll apply to anything where you get grades and have to graduate. So my instinct is to expand it to any schooling.

Title doesn't strike me as particularly terrible. I think it's better to broaden the definition a bit here.
Rhymes with "Protracted."
Gotta trope, dood!
I'd drop the word "High" from the description and pretty much leave everything else the same. Title works fine for what it is (although this might be Americanitis on my part?) and it passed the Guess The Trope test for me, at least.
They lost me. Forgot me. Made you from parts of me. If you're the One, my father's son, what am I supposed to be?
Expanding it to cover all education is probably the simplest way of doing it.

Eliminated the "High". Still make sense?

Did a little more work on it, since it said "high school" a few more times within the description. That should do it, I think.

I actually created this trope with high school specifically in mind, but I guess it could probably work with all levels of education.
It's a good thing our last name isn't Drew, because then you'd be Nancy Drew and I'd be Andrew Drew. -Andy Botwin
It's been five months since the last post, Are we finished here?
If no, then all that has to be done is edit the description to be Non-Highschool specific.
If yes, then I'm hollering for a lock.

Graduation for Everyone has just been launched, shouldn't be difficult to resolve.
The trope seems to be about how everyone graduates from an American-style high school. The idea that everyone who goes to university graduates is probably a trope as well, but this doesn't seem to be for examples of that. All it needs is a simple rename that explains what type of graduation it means.
