The player can tell a Sim working in the cafeteria to quit by canceling the action. If the cafeteria worker of the dormitory is killed, they will not be replaced, and the stove will remain vacant until the controlled Sim moves out of the dormitory. College sub-neighborhoods have a Campus Directory, which lists all Sims on campus.
This directory can be accessed by using the Call College option on a phone , then selecting Campus Directory. The player will then be able to select which Sim to call, and will be asked whether to invite that Sim over, or simply talk to them.
This feature allows college students to call campus Sims who they have not met, which will fulfill the want to meet somebody new. Aside from that, it has no advantages over using the regular phonebook. Time in college sub-neighborhoods works much as it does in The Sims , in that there are no days of the week, and bills come every three days.
Unlike the main neighborhood or other sub-neighborhoods in The Sims 2 , Sims in college sub-neighborhoods are grouped into households, where each Sim retains their given first and last name, but money and friends are collective, just as in typical neighborhoods. Households can be created by:. As with the vacation destinations in The Sims 3: World Adventures , Sims going to college will leave their home world and travel to the Sims University campus via loading screen.
While Sims are at college, aging is stopped for everyone to prevent death of old age in college. Pets, pregnant Sims, and Sims who are teens or younger cannot travel to the campus. Sims who have babies or toddlers will need to hire a babysitter while they are at college. In this expansion, college is considerably different from what it was in The Sims 2: University.
College is open to young adults , adults , and elders , and there is no limit on the number of times a Sim can attend. A Sim can sign up for one or two terms, and can take 1, 2, or 3 classes for 6, 12, or 18 credit hours per term.
However, distinguished degrees also carry higher entry requirements, and being accepted onto one is not guaranteed. Each university also has three organisations that are only open to students at that institution. Choosing to join these student societies and attend their events confers benefits such as gaining extra credit for associated classes; increasing skill development; and unlocking unique social interactions, clothing and decorative items, and free skill-building objects.
Your Sim's application will automatically be considered for all degree subjects by both University of Britechester and Foxbury Institute. After one to two in-game days, your acceptance letter will arrive in your household mailbox, informing you of which degrees you have been accepted onto at each university.
You can also check back in on your application status using the computer, which can potentially give you an earlier answer. Once you have received news of your acceptance, you can enrol in university using the computer, mailbox, or cell phone. Perhaps you already have a vocation in mind for your Sim: either because their Aspiration requires them to pursue a specific career, or just because you've got a story you want to tell for that particular character. On the other hand, maybe you haven't decided everything about their future yet, but have an idea of what skills you'd like them to focus on.
Or maybe you've already got your Sim's ideal degree subject in mind, but aren't sure what to do after graduation. The table below shows every degree subject in Discover University alongside the skills it develops, and the careers it allows graduates improved access to.
Note: Careers listed under 'other packs' require you to have separately bought and installed the relevant add-on pack in order to access them after graduation.
All core skills developed as part of a degree are from either the base game or Discover University. If you have other packs installed, elective optional classes are available upon enrollment for many skills added in those packs, which contribute grades and credit towards your degree.
Keen-eyed Simmers may have noticed that there are three career branches from the base game that have no associated degree:. However, budding Pro Athletes and eSports Gamers should still consider enrolling in university, as participating in the Soccer Team Player and E-Sports Competitor extracurricular activities will respectively provide the same benefits as a degree for these careers. Your Sim just needs to be enrolled at either university studying any degree in order to access these activities, which can be joined by "Searching for Job" on a phone - they're under the After School Activity category, and basically function like a part-time job but unpaid, of course.
Aspiring Mixologists hoping that there are similar non-academic benefits to university are, unfortunately, out of luck. It seems that in the world of The Sims 4, Mixology is the only career that's considered a full-time vocation and yet not at all an academic pursuit.
Which is potentially a bit hurtful to all the professional bartenders out there After they graduate with a degree, embarking upon any of the associated careers listed above will allow your Sim to enjoy a series of perks, namely: higher pay; easier promotions thanks to increased performance; more vacation days; and a signing bonus up to one per in-game week if you choose to change careers.
If only the real-life graduate job market was this good. Your graduate Sim will also have the opportunity to enter those careers at a higher level: in most cases, this means being able to choose a career branch straight away.
Ordinarily, in most careers a Sim would choose their branch somewhere between promotion levels , after working their way up from the generic entry level; but since degrees are branch-specific, having one allows you to start at the point where your education can begin to pay off immediately.
Note: Having a degree does not provide any career benefits for the following alternative money-making pursuits:. Laptops are just so much more practical and portable.
In this CC set there are two laptops and a desktop, and one of the laptops is a cool new deco item. Several of them are definitely thick enough to remind me of math or science books.
Because even as a bookworm, nothing that long is very fun to read. Simmer bramblefinch created four different stacks for this CC, two taller and two shorter. Dorm room furniture is typically pretty basic and compact, as evidenced by nearly everything we got in University Life from The Sims 3. Those classically boring beds have now been converted for us to use in Sims 4, thanks to jokeplease!
None of the base game beds will really work all that well for a dorm, so this CC is a great idea. These have been so sorely missed. How your Sim embraces college life is up to them. They can study all night to complete homework or chill out and sleep in. And, with activities like juice pong, juggling a soccer ball, and hanging out with roommates, taking a break has never been so fun!
