Daria and Tom Sloane break up at the movie's end, when she points out -- and Tom doesn't dispute -- that they've both lost interest in the relationship. The two decide to remain friends. Daria gets into [[Raft College]] instead of [[Bromwell]], and convinces Jane to apply to BFAC, where Jane is accepted. Both girls plan to continue their friendship as time and schoolwork allow, and the movie ends on a high note with their toast to the future.

As noted in a review by [http://www.slate.com/?id=2060921 ''Slate'' columnist Emily Russbaum], who praised the film for being "a sharply funny exploration of social class... [homing] in on the elitism of the United States college system", the film shows the characters going off to very different paths after graduation based on their economic prospects ("unlike, say, the characters on [Beverly Hills] ''90210''").
