There were two manga that are set after the first group graduate from high school. They ran in seperate magazines coming out once a month for each of them (usually).
Yui's group goes to university, live in the same dorm and join the university's Light Music Club. That club has a lot of members, wth upwards of ten bands in it. We only get to really meet two of the other bands. One as the friend/rivals and the other as the "wait they play too?" group. The girls get more serious about schooling and less about music, though they still practise and have two concerts that I recall. The rival band is more serious about music and a lot of the panel time is spent on them interacting with HTT (mostly Yui).
The other manga follows Azusa in her last year of high school and her efforts to keep the Light Music Club going (as she is the only member). She easilt secures Ui and Jun, but needs a fourth to be an official club. In the manga Azusa is the only one that knows the songs and has an instrument, so she plays and sings alone for Freshmen orientation. She manages to score one from the concert, but also early on they find a blonde girl in the club room for weird reasons.
Both ended before a full school year, so we don't see Azusa, Jun, and Ui's graduation, nor what happens to them afterwards. Yui, Mio, Ritsu, and Mugi seem less inclined to be a band with the class loads and club fees (work needed) so it is unclear if they will continue on by the time Azusa might show up.
