More fraternities and sororities

only if there is the option to toggle them off completely.

Events like homecoming and graduation should be similar to the festivals that occur in San Myshuno.

No. these things need to be completely player controlled. No "homecoming", only a school dance that you can name to whatever the heck you want. If you want it to be a prom, you can call it that, if you want it to be a homecoming, you can call it that. Personally, I'd be calling it a Formal, or maybe a Blue Light Disco. The developers need to keep in mind that we don't all live in the same part of the world, and don't all have exactly the same events. They need to make the game have more options, there need to be more things that are in the control of the player.
The school dance also should have a dress code, that we the player sets, and a theme (or not), music style, food (or not). Let us control out own sim fantasy.
Same goes for graduation. Not everyone has one. For many, you don't have a formal graduation until you complete uni. Like the school dance, it needs to be player controlled, with plenty of variable options, including the option to switch it off.

Legacy students- If your parents went to a specific university you can easy admission/ a scholarship to that university. If your child doesn't attend the university that you attend, you can get a negative moodlet.

I find that to be a bizarre concept.

Different locations- The community college should be based in the home city, so you can live at home and still work whilst doing evening classes. Where as the other universities should be in a separate world where you have to travel to. This would allow for more in depth campus design.

Nah, all unis should be a place your sims can easily commute to. In my part of the world, all major cities have multiple universities, and most minor ones have at least one campus, usually a branch of the state university. Every part of the world is different, and the game should reflect that, to give each of us more realism.

As well as the greek houses having different personalities so should the halls.

What are 'halls'? Are they corridors on campus?

In the future if there is a there is a holiday EP, you should be able to go on Spring Break.

What about summer, autumn and winter breaks too? Don't your poor students have four terms, and therefore four breaks?

You should be able to choose whether once you graduate if you; moved back with your parents, by yourself or with friends with university.

You should have those options for uni too!
I know a lot of people who started uni while still living at home, I know many who graduated while living at home, I know others who lived in overcrowded share houses, and others who shared a flat with their partner.

Don't forget Beer Brewing and Slacklining skill sets, along with "Studious" and "Dude-ious" traits...

HA!
Brewing was a part of year 12 chemistry when I was at school! It's a life skill!
