What was your chosen degree and university?

I only sent 2 sims to university. They both went to Britchester. One played soccer. My girl went for a language and communications distinguished degree. My boy went for a engineering degree but did not qualify for a distinguished degree.

Demonte is my first Sim in uni, though, and he is majoring in biology (distinguished).

Time enjoyed is never time wasted
It is really just a question of how many teens I actually want to send all the way through a degree.
I love the shared residential neighborhood in Britechester with the pub. I will overhaul the actual pub at some point.

(not always sims related but I review and discuss television shows and movies. Foreign or not.)
I play on console and PC now! YAY!
In his childish innocence, Quazar believes his alien Mom fell in love with Dad while observing him from afar and that's why he was chosen for abduction. He plans to build a rocket, travel to Sixam, find his Mom and get some answers to questions he's had all his life. Chief among these, why has she never visited or contacted them?
He suspects she must have an important and/or serious reason that's preventing her from leaving Sixam. But he doesn't have a clue what it could be since she obviously loves his Dad, right? If his suspicions turn out to be true and Mom can't fly back home with him, Quazar has additional plans to build an alluring robot for Dad to love instead. We'll see how all that turns out.
I'd also like to send one of my Super Sims and see just how many Distinguished degrees he's qualified to pursue. Since I've been reading on threads in the forum that a major part of getting good grades depends on our Sims' skill levels, he should do well even without studying very much, or turning in term papers, presentations etc.
I plan to just let him socialize and have fun as an experiment to see if that is indeed true or not. He's very wealthy, so I'll renovate one of the dorms to give him a luxury single occupancy room equipped for parties and romance. Or perhaps a residential house with invited roommates! That would probably work out better for this particular Sim.
Among many, many more Sims I'd like to experience University, I'll also send one of my Spellcasters, a Vampire and a Mermaid, just for funzies. I'll be curious to see which one has the best experience and the best grades out of that bunch.
Lastly, since it's my absolute favorite way to play, I'll of course make a brand new Sim and send them to University Rags to Riches style and see how that goes. This Sim will be unskilled in everything without a dime to his/her name, so that'll be interesting to see what kind of scholarships (if any) he/she might be awarded. I know they'll at least get the one for poor Sims.
I'm not sure what degrees I'll have anyone pursue other than Quazar. I'll make that decision once I get my hands on the pack.
I've put the pack on my Christmas list and hopefully whoever gets my name in the family draw will get it for me. I'm also hoping that any/all bugs related to this pack will have been fixed in an update patch by then. *crosses fingers*
Happy Simming!
Next one is going to Britchester!
I absolutely hate the dorm life, but I absolutely love how this new experience is almost a new life stage!
They are already old enough for woohoo, but still yound enough to do stupid plum
I'm currently sending my Spellcaster to Britechester where he is working on a Distinguished Degree in Language and Literature, but he's living off campus in his home.
Aaron wasn't as skilled as he had been in the previous game save, having played him longer and having this copy from My Library. He started with the basic skills I gave him, via MCCC. Disappointing he didn't snag the Athletic Scholarship, but I think he did get the one for Brindleton Bay. At any rate, he got one. It took a couple of days for him to receive the news, but that's okay, because I had three other Sims to age up. By the time I got to number four, I was antsy to get them to uni and start the gameplay I envisioned while awaiting this EP to be released.
I recalled a cheat another player had posted. Happily, I wrote it down, and found the paper I wrote it on. (This is a huge feat in and of itself, mind you.) For Aaron, I chose History. In previous saves after he grew up he went into the military. I'm still of the belief, this is where he's headed.
For Erik, who got the Future Star scholarship, I chose Fine Art (which is really Fine Arts with an 's' if EA is listening). He's currently a B-Lister.
Joey, Jr., who is a bonafide genius, I selected the biology degree since he's going to be a physician. I'm troubled that he has to have just a basic degree, when his older brothers get the snazzy ones.
Brianna, I chose Physics. She's a scientist in my book (no, I'm mean in my book, see my siggie). Basically, she's also the A & A officer. (Anthropology and Archaeology.) The kids are just finishing up their very first term at uni. I think so far they did well. Joey still has to make his presentation and Bree has another day before the term is up.
