University ideas

I was thinking how amazing university is play and how I really miss it.
The World:
Netherlands, it’s really beautiful place and has a good youth culture.

Universities:
I think either there should be a one big university and that every career would benefit from.
Or there could be three main universities. For example SimU could be great for art, creative writing and acting, SimsIvy university could be good for medicine, science and learning oceanography or education and Sim community college could good for restaurant management, social media and business management.
Family:
When a Sim is choosing a university, the Sim’s family will encourage them to go their university.
Parents may cry when their young adult goes to uni.
Sometimes parents will celebrate when sims leaves home.
Transport:
if cars or bikes are add before.
The world could a car free world but incredibly bike friendly.
Trait: Vegan
Over-achiever
Teacher pet
Power mad
Relationships :
First year students will become tense when they first leave home but will feel better once they’ve called their family.
Sims can fall in love with their professors either just a crush or inappropriate relationship with their professor.
The student’s grade may be affected by their inappropriate relationship.
Recipe and food services:
Hot plate recipes like pancakes or beans and could be a possible fire risk.
Vegan recipes.
Grilled cheeses.
Sims could order takeout from their phones.
Possible takeout ideas: Chinese, Clean eating dishes and Soul food.
Deaths:
Sims can live off a junk food diet but after two weeks sims will die from poor diet.
Housing:
housing could effect how Sims studies and grades. For example if a sim lives in a dorm or house with TLC trait, Sim will become tense if there’s something broken and prevents them for studying.
All dorms and houses could have housekeeping services.
Moodlets:
Missing family home, sims will be sad and cry frequently.
Finally Free, sims will be really happy because they love college life and their new freedom.
Burning the books, when sims have studying for 7 hours.
Places:
Coffee shops
Parks for hanging out and studying.
Protesting
Dive bars
Dance clubs
Students community halls
Libraries

1) Bunk beds - will probably never use them but I do like options.
2) Sports! Really hope they add in the ability to toss a baseball around or give us a soccer net to play with, something like that.
3) I hope they make it so Sims can’t excel in a career without going to university. A degree that just makes it so you start at level 3 instead of level 1 just isn’t good enough to me. It’s pretty easy to get promoted as it is. So like for example, if you don’t have a medical degree, you can’t be a doctor. Like when you try to apply you’ll get a pop up saying you’re not qualified, something like that I think would be different and cool.
4) Give us the ability to get a degree and still live in our normal homes! I don’t mind a separate university world but I want my Sims to be able to either take online classes or travel to the university to take a class without having to live in the university world.
I don't mind if they give us one main University, three would be cool but I'll take one. I also hope it comes with bikes.
I totally agree with this. I hope there's a pop up too but at the same time we've been able to become doctors without degrees so I don't think they'll change it...this is why University should have been the first EP. It's more logical that way.
We definitely need the option to take online classes I mean it's 2019, it's what people are doing these days.

I like this idea. I also hope that educators & lawyers is an option as well (with the degree as a requirement of course).
They could make it so if you own the University pack then you have to have a degree to be a doctor. But, if you don't own the pack, then nothing changes.
Also bunk beds and Murphy beds to save space! And death by Murphy bed.
And shower WooHoo.
Bunk bed woohoo... Murphy bed woohoo... Pool table woohoo...
That's a really interesting option, Simzilla; I'd like to see it in action!
edited to make it clear this is Simzilla's idea!
2nd edit: now that I've actually read the interim posts, ahem--Simzilla's & Chazzzy's & aprilrose's, too!
American football is not inclusive.
Soccer and Rugby would be great options... though too much football.
Soccer and cricket, perhaps? Tennis maybe? Hockey?
And why cheerleading? That's a weird one. What about dancesport? Competitive gymnastics? Circus training? Parkour?
Although...IL brought back sailboats, so could they give us racing, maybe? Though it'd probably be a rabbithole, as horseracing was in TS3.
I'd actually rather have a full gamepack for sports, entirely separate from a Uni pack. They could dovetail with each other, of course.
-Finally, it would give some fun function to the club system. Add more club traits and more icons for this package.
Certainly, University and Get Together have become very interesting packages to be used together.
-Some activities only for young adults, others only for children/teenagers. For exemple: Scout boys and camporee for children. Prom night, gym games and cheerleading for teenagers. Drink games, partys and naked activity for young adults. (I loved the interaction "run naked" and "painting model nude" of The Sims 3).
- Graduation party for all ages.
- Summer holidays, spring camps. Interacting with the Seasons package.
- School uniform styles for children and teenagers (and be able to customize it). Option to choose if the school will have a uniform or not.
- New type of building to create our own school.
- New active career in Education.
- Have complete freedom to choose what to do during class days. Get out of class, sabotage objects, flirt with other students, study in the library, set up a study group like groups in Japan, etc.
- Be a class leader for good grades or great responsibility. (Interaction with Parenthood package). Have more confidence and responsibility with the younger ones. (SENPAI!!)
- Taking warnings at school diminishes their performance and their points of responsibility. (More interactions with Parenthood)
- Have space to put bicycles in schools. Teenagers and children could ride their bicycle to schools.
Or, if you were a super protective parent, you could take your child by car to school. (Woooow, did I hear cars and bicycles back?)
- Music class, swimming lessons, arts class, and the conventional classroom lessons.
Those are the most important things I expect for this package.
- Cars, motorcycles, bycicles. (Detailed animations)
- Wild Animals (Interactive)
- Thief and Celebrity (Better and more active!)
- Bands
- Farming or Medieval EP
- Cyberpunk or Asian GP
- Beach.
How do you think 2 Sims are gonna fit into a bunk bed?
The same way they made two sims fit in a coffin.
You have a point there.
In this way it could be a little like clubs where they could include skills from other packs if you owned them. Say I want my sim to go to school to become an archeologist, if I have Jungle Adventures I could customize their degree to include the archeology skill and build a school that has a classroom that includes the objects that let me increase that skill.
They could also include regular degrees that are preset to certain fields of study, but then have one degree labeled "custom" where we can build our own. (In this way we could also build a magic school with the upcoming Realm of Magic pack)
