This is a rabbit-hole career to simulate University in The Sims 4. The career have 5 levels and 6 branches based on The Sims 3 University Life’s majors. It’s a really simple career since it isn’t expected to stay at uni forever – your Sim can max level this career within 1 and a half to 2 weeks with some dedication. University Studentes will receive daily sallary, I just like to imagine this as a scolarship. No chance cards included.
Updates
07/23 – New versions avaliable:
University Student v2 (Default) – Same as v1, but added University Degree and Graduate Trait as Career Rewards (might require Get To Work to work properly), adjusted salaries and promotions bonus. Sims in the final level now work for 8 hours instead of 6.
University Student v2 (NoSalary) – Same as v1, but added University Degree and Graduate Trait as Career Rewards (might require Get To Work to work properly). No daily salaries in this version, although promotion bonuses maintained (so your Sims will have some money to sustain themselves). Sims in the final level still receives salary and now work for 8 hours instead of 6.
Version 1 still avaliable for download until I can be sure that version 2 does or does not work without Get To Work.
I’m currently working in a part-time version as requested by some of you, but I’m having trouble in making it work properly. Actually, if someone does have some knowledge in creating custom part-time careers, I could use some help.
