I have only just bought Discover University. I have attempted to enroll a Sim into Foxbury for the first time.
I also chose the option to move her into the Tidal Tower dorm.
As you can imagine, I quickly came across problems. It seems eating is fairly difficult. I understand that there is no build mode and no stoves in the dorms. There is a cafeteria in the commons but although there is a Sim behind it, the option to "Order Food" is greyed out. It tells me that "Dinner opens at 5pm".
It's six am in the morning! My Sim is starving for breakfast. She has classes scheduled all morning.
Then there are the classes. I can't seem to find them.
I can see I have one scheduled, just not how to get there.
Please help. Alternatively I will have to return to an earlier stage in order to study from off campus (or something).

When it's time to go to class, your sims will try to go early an hour before or as soon as the time hits, you can click 'go to class' in the career panel.

As for classes, I don't know what is the problem. This has never happened to me. One hour before a class starts my sims go there autonomously. The action appears in their queue.
Your sim should go to their classes automatically. Make sure you don't cancel the "go early" action. It takes them a while to walk over campus. It's one of the two rabbit hole buildings on campus though, if you click on them I think there is an option to attend your class (not the skill class, that's something else).
Such an option has never been available for me. What a bummer, really.
I might be mistaken I really am not sure. Can check it out in a bit when I've motivated myself to get up 😅
If breakfast starts at 7 that would explain about the cafeteria, I guess. Unless it was a little bugged..
I think (in the morning) I will go back a save and try again. I’m heading for bed now.
I will have to look at buying a mini fridge and see whether the dorm mates do leave any food around.. thanks.
You will have to use this button on holidays because they won't auto go early or any other time, classes are not canceled for holidays the same way work would be. Usually I get my sims close to a class building manually before hand on a holiday, or somewhere closer in between if I'm unsure which building it is, and then I use that "go to class" when it becomes available at class time.
Of course sims get to the class rabbithole one hour before a class starts.
I also found what my problem was. Despite being on campus since mid-day Sunday, my Sims term didn’t start until Tuesday morning. The class I had been certain she had on Monday morning was not happening at all. Ops!
I did buy a fridge from the kiosk in the end, because that is a necessary convenience. After a little more play I’m probably going to chalk this Sim up as a test run and start a new project...
