Classes

In The Sims 2: University, classes are one of the many ways to improve a Sim's class performance. Improving a Sim's class performance will mean that he/she will get a better grade for the semester. Each major consists of 8 classes, one class per semester.

Sims will automatically go to class one hour before it starts. The player can keep a Sim from going to class by canceling this action while he/she is still on the lot. If the autonomous "go to class" action is canceled, the player can get the Sim to go to class by clicking on the Sim and selecting "College ... Go to Class". This can be done at any time while the class is in session, but Sims who are late to class will gain less class performance than those who are on time. Sims are not penalized for missing class.

Since the semester timer keeps running while a Sim is on a campus community lot, even though the clock on his/her home lot is stopped, Sims on campus community lots will still automatically go to class one hour before it starts. If the player does not cancel this, the game will continue to show the community lot, and the Sim will return to that lot when class is over.

The first time a Sim goes to class he/she will meet his/her professors.
