Both. When I first enroll the students, the holiday traditions reset. If I travel with a university student, the holiday traditions reset.

I play on PS4 and I've been having the same problem for quite a while. Sometimes the progress is saved and sometimes it isn't, as far as I can tell it's random, but I haven't paid much attention.
I complete the traditions (they get the gold tick/background turns gold, as well as the action of 'Tradition Completed'), then either travel, exit/renter the game or go into manage worlds- pretty much anything with a loading screen. Once I got back into playing the household the entire thing is reset, or certain traditions have regressed (from a golden tick, or the background indicating that the holiday has been sufficiently completed to maybe a couple traditions with that partial disappearing tick and others blank).
Also, on big holidays sometimes you can complete just a couple of traditions for the background to turn gold, but once you go through a loading screen back to the household, the backround is gone but the traditions still completed. By the time the holiday is ended, the sad moodlet of a bad holiday with no or little traditions comes, but the gold tick/partial tick had still been there.
This can happen on every household/save I have played with sims of all ages, and not just on holiday traditions but sometimes on event progress, too.
