Will my Sim have to quit his job to go to the university

My understanding is that *if* I get my Sim a job before she goes to the University, and send her to University on one of her days off, that job is put on hold until she finishes out the term or terms. Then when she returns to the home world, the job is still there waiting for her.

Although Twallan's post makes it sound like your Sim can't have a job and still be able to go to the University, I don't think that's the case.
