Overview
  • Online University Benefits
  • Obtaining an Online Degree
  • New Interactions

Online University Benefits

Attending university online is cheaper than going to campus and doesn’t require your sim to leave their homeworld or set up a homeworld university to get a degree and its perks. If your sim has a wish to enroll in university, enrolling in online university will also fulfill it.

They can also work on multiple degrees simultaneously!

Obtaining an Online Degree

Every sim aged Teen or Older can register to complete a degree online.

It takes 96 in-game hours to complete a degree and your sim will get their diploma and extra trait once they’re done.

If your sim has traits that correspond with a specific degree (Ex: Artistic trait and Fine Arts), they will complete that degree faster than sims without them.

If your sim has the Genius trait, they will complete all degrees faster than sims without it.

If your sim has the Absent Minded trait, they will complete all degrees slower than sims without it.

Your sim will be charged for their degree upon completion. If your household funds are insufficient, the cost of the degree will be added to your next bill.
