Young Adult/University Update

How cool would it be if we got a university/young adult update? Here's what I think it could be like:
After your sims graduated high school, they would age up into a young adult. Then there would be a huge university that you could actually go to (and it's not just a rabbit hole building) where your young adult sims could go to after graduating high school. They could major in a subject and would be given certain activities to do in order to graduate (this could be a new type of education thing). Your sims could get a dorm on campus (either with or without a roommate), or could get an apartment (which could introduce more than 4 sims per house), and live with other sims there. Your sims could also join sororities that have certain personalities and acted certain ways around different sims/other sororities.
Of course I don't expect all of these things to be added, this is just an idea that I think would bring a lot to the game.

You could also try playing The Sims 2 University and The Sims 3 University Life. Those would give you what you need, they wouldn't be linear, and they wouldn't require you to buy anything to complete quests. Plus, they have the added benefit of not having to be played in real time, but in Sim time...which is a lot faster than real time.

Those are great games, but cannot be played on tablets and phones (ie. to play away from home). (There's no place like home, but sometimes you need to get out and about, like to your local coffee shop, or to work/school, and on a break from work or on the bus to work/school you might wanna play. ) I think this is a great idea for Sims Freeplay for a possible feature to add later. How would it work though, would there be some sort of quest around building the University building in Freeplay (probably on the island) that unlocks young adults (who would of course look like adults, given it is a tablet game, and besides in the Sims games that have had University and young adults, they still looked like adults). What sort of job would a young adult have, given that preteens and teens have school, and adults have jobs to go to in Freeplay? Would they disappear to an invisible rabbithole university class like the school or work of the rest of the Freeplay sims?
Also, what advantages would going to University potentially give Freeplay Sims, who do not have any skill points? Should only young adults be eligible for University, or adults and possibly elders besides?
I already have a hard time keeping up with the goals in Sims FreePlay; that's why I uninstalled it. Playing it in real time...well, I just don't have that kind of time in RL to devote to a mobile/tablet game.
