Sims 4 University Challenge
Based on a similar challenge by Zerbu.
The Sims 4 University Challenge
Setup Sims who are Young Adult, Adult or Elder may attend university.
You can either create new Sims, use an existing household or split Sims from an existing household.
Create a dorm lot for your Sims to live in and zone it as residential. Merge the Sims you created into a group of 8 Sims.
If you don't have enough Sims to send, merge in Sims that are randomly generated or downloaded from the gallery.
Use the FreeRealEstate cheat to move your Sims into the dorm, then use the "money" cheat to reduce household funds to §1,000. If playing an existing household, you may borrow money from the household funds by using the sims.modify_funds cheat to subtract the money from the main household, and the same cheat to add it to the university household.
Only one dorm is required for the challenge, though you may create others tovisit.
Next, create a community lot where classes are located. When at class, you must follow a list of tasks in the "Majors" section of the challenge. It is recommended you create one lot that combines all the classes, as otherwise it will not be possible to control multiple Sims at once.
Students must attend classes every weekday from 8 am to 12pm.
University students may not have careers, only part-time jobs. Teen jobs for all mod is required for this.
Each semester ends when the student achieves that semester’s goal, and then points are added up to get the student's grade.
Point System:
A: 100 - 90 points B: 89 - 80 points C: 79 - 70 points D: 69 - 60 points F: any score under 60
Calculation of points: 40 points - for meeting your major's goal for the semester 30 points - for going to class every day and participating in classroom activities. 30 points - for completing weekly homework assignment
- 2 points for each day not in class - 5 points for each weekly homework assignment not completed
Once the student reaches the goal for the senior semester, they “graduate” and return to their home lot or where ever they came from.
