About

Are your Sims ready for the time of their lives? Heading off to university opens up new opportunities, from social connections to career growth in The Sims 3: University Life. From class activities to major-specific objects, your Sim will find new ways to learn! And university isn't just about hitting the books. Join a protest, flirt at a bonfire party - there's a lot to learn outside of lectures at the student union. With new locations like the bowling alley and SimBurger to explore, and new activities like juice pong and spray painting murals to enjoy, your Sims are sure to have the time of their lives!

Storyline

College is a time of learning and experimentation. Now your Sims can create their own campus memories and have experiences that will shape their destinies! Choosing a major begins an education that will pay off handsomely after college, with better entry-level jobs and quicker promotions.

But of course, it’s not just about studying… your Sims want to have fun, too! Dorm parties and bonfires are great ways to blow off steam, and there’s no end to the shenanigans. Joining a notable social group can also open up entirely new avenues for advancement.

Whether posting on social networks via smartphone, leading a campus protest or researching new scientific discoveries, ambitious Sims will find a lot to engage them in University Life!

Each major comes with its own special Sim enhancement. Play with an anatomically-correct skeleton as part of the Science and Medicine major, or broadcast a radio show with the Communications major. Joining a prominent social clique - Jock, Nerd, or Rebel - can lead to unique job specializations: Sports Agent, Video Game Designer, and Art Appraiser. But your Sim will have to work hard to rise to the top. The surrounding town has a wealth of options for exploration and entertainment. Down java at Roasted Toasted Beans or argue superheroes at Keith’s Komics. Anything to avoid studying.

When you want the best for your Sims, it’s time to send them to college. What awaits them are a ton of fun and educational experiences that will help your Sims reap the benefits of higher learning, on or off-campus.
