The youngest Millennials graduated school in about 2014 or 2015 at the latest. There’s no way, in context, they’re talking about a PhD, and very, very little chance they’re even talking about undergrad university.
It wasn’t obvious because of the age, it was obvious because people don’t say “back when I was in school” to refer to a doctorate. And when the context is specifically trying to emphasise how young they were at the time, they don’t tend to mean “when I was an undergrad”, either.
So did you graduate from college last year? PhD, or reskilling? Following a passion?
(Still not enough info to know when it was! Haha)

Hm…I’m seeing that millennials are between 29 and 44. Even 29 is old enough to earn a PhD.
Either way, the older ones are definitely old enough to be talking about post-secondary.
