University Guide

This guide is all about attending college/university in EP1: University.

Sending your sim to University

• Scholarships - All sims qualify for the sim city scholars grant. They can qualify for others by building skills. There are a few other scholarships for things like getting abducted by aliens or being an orphan. To have your sim apply for scholarships have them use the telephone and choose college, apply for scholarships. While at University your sims will also earn grants based on their grades for each semester.
• Going to University - Once you're ready to send your sim to University have them use a telephone and select college, move to college. A taxi will arrive to take your sim away and the family will gather to wave good-bye.
• Leaving University - Once your sim has graduated you can use the telephone to throw a party or move back to the town they came from. A taxi will arrive to take your sim away. They'll reappear in the sim bin ready to move out on their own or back in with Mom and Dad.

University Life

• Dorm life -
• Semesters -
• Secret society - To become a member of the secret society your sim must make friends with three secret society members. Members can be found at community lots wearing black jackets with a llama patch. They will not wear the jacket when visiting or walking past residential lots. You will know your sim has made friends with three members when they're handcuffed and taken away by limousine. They will be taken to the secret society house where they can socialize with other members. Once you're a member you can visit any time by using a telephone to call for the secret society limousine.

• Greek House - Greek Houses are The Sims 2 equivalent of a sorority or fraternity. Your sim can join a Greek House by using a telephone and selecting the "ask to join Greek House" option. Once you've made the call members from the Greek House come over for you to socialize with and gain enough relationship points to join. You'll get a sort of Greek House scenario pop up window telling you how much time has elapsed and how much you've got left to impress your guests. The easiest way to join is to build up relationship points with the members before making the call asking to join. That way when you ask to join you're already most of the way there. If you've already made friends with them you'll be accepted immediately when they arrive. There's no penalty for failing. You can always try again.

There are several advantages to joining a Greek House.

• • More opportunity for your popularity sims to make friends
  • Members can visit the campus and bring back pizza or other goodies
  • You can influence pledges to do your homework and term papers without losing your influence points

Your sims do not have to live in the Greek House if you don't want them to. They can still live in the dorm or in a house. They can even turn their own house into a Greek House by using a telephone to apply for charter at a cost of about 20 simoleons.
