College (sub-neighborhood)

Colleges are sub-neighborhoods in The Sims 2 University.


 * The neighborhoods that shipped with the game are


 * Sim State University
 * La Fiesta Tech
 * Académie Le Tour

Just like other sub-neighborhoods and neighborhoods in The Sims 2 series, users can create their own custom college neighborhood using terrains imported from SimCity 4.

Young adults attend college where they choose a major and attend classes to improve their class performance or get put on academic probation.

All three pre-designed colleges have houses around campus available to rent, as well as dormitories where students can live. Each college also holds a secret society lot that is invisible from the neighborhood. The pre-designed campuses also feature public facilities such as student centers/student unions, gyms, cafes, libraries, lounges, and shops where Young Adults can go when not in class. Sim State University and La Fiesta Tech both have Greek houses which students can try to join. There are no academic buildings on any of the pre-designed campuses, so it is unknown where the Sims attend class or take their final exams.

Unlike the main neighborhood or other sub-neighborhoods in The Sims 2, Sims here are grouped into households, where each Sim retains their given first and last name, but money and friends are collective, just as in typical neighborhoods. Households can be created by:
 * Using the Create-A-Sim tool while in the University sub-neighborhood,
 * Using the Send Teens to College tool in the Families bin of the Neighborhood menu,
 * Manually joining two or more individual Sims into the same building.
