After testing in a new save file, I was able to have one sim complete a full term with no issues. However, when wanting to send a second generation sim in a different save game to university the issues arise. This time it won't let me get through a day, or even through house selection, without crashing unexpectedly. I really want to play with university but there are too many issues for me. I experience some crashes time to time in normal gameplay (rare though) but with university the risk of crashing increases significantly.
@kgillis097 Does it help if you save, quit, and reload both immediately before and after you send the sim to university? The travel transition is fragile, as mentioned before, and often needs some help to work properly. That was the point of the list of steps I posted earlier, and adding the mods I mentioned should help as well.
