User Ratings and Reviews

1 Star just a way to make more money faster and have more aspirations
this game really just serves as a gateway to having more available aspirations (6 instead of the usual 3) and a better paying job from a younger age. the actual "college" experience is a drag that just takes away from game play in the usual sims households. i tried experimenting with the new social interactions, but found that it wasn't worth the time spent and have since learned to just fast-track the students through school and get it over with. could've shortened the length of each semester (have to complete EIGHT semesters to graduate, 2 for each grade level). more boring than real college.

5 Stars Awesome!
This game is amazing, and it works perfectly on my MacBook. Not only are the graphics up to par, but the loading time… wait, what am I talking about? There is barely any loading time! I went to go get some cereal, and when I got back, it was already sitting there, just waiting to be played!

Also, I'm one of those players who go and download re-colors and other objects that fans make for the game, and I've added a lot so far, but the game still works perfecty.

Basically, this is what consumes most of my 24 hours!

5 Stars It keeps getting better
This is an excellent game, and each expansion pack offers more and more possibility. In all honesty, after getting The Sims 2 Open For Business, I don't spend a lot of time in the University town, but it's well worth the additional options opened up.

I particularly enjoy the added want and want lock options that open up as your sim progresses through the semesters. This, just like real college, is why I suggest having getting/having this expansion pack, even if you don't spend a lot of time playing the university itself. The benefits will last a lifetime!

Enjoy!

5 Stars Does it work on intel based macs?
I love the sims 2 even though I only have one expansion pack which is PETS. I want to get university horribly bad but on he cover it doesent have the little universal ensignia on it, unlike some of the other expnsions such as PETS, OPEN FOR BUSINESS, and SEASONS. that ensignia means that the game works on intel chip based macs. So yet this problem leaves me sitting like a hopeless computer idot. please comment back!!

5 Stars Awesome & Addicting
I must say this game is extremely addicting…and after selling my pc and getting myself a macbook I will have to say I don't regret it at all!! it runs smooth and fast!
