I have wrangled as many as six Sims at Uni (at a time). I placed them all in the very same Dorm at Britechester-U. I placed them there on the weekend, to allow for them to get a jump on their assignments. Being late for class, as already stated, is a bad thing. But it is also very helpful for you to select either actively listening, or better still, take notes. Click on the little icon, as you would work, or school, to find the selections. Also, as stated get those term papers done, edit the heck out of them until you achieve excellent or outstanding (can't remember which is the the highest) but the game will let you know that no more improvement can be done. Then turn it in! Also, get those boards done. Take the time to do the very best that can be done on said board. Ask for opinions and then rearrange the data. Once you get it to outstanding, it's ready to be presented. Check for a time after 8 AM when your Sim has a much later class to present it. Or use the time after the last class of that day (as long as it's before 5 PM) to send your Sim to make their presentation. Do this BEFORE the end of the term.
Not to brag, because I made my share of mistakes the first couple of times through, too. I finally learned it was possible for the students to take 4 hard core classes. This will eliminate the elective. But, it means they are done after three Terms, too. I would turn aging off, too, as was already mentioned. That way you don't lose much of their young lives to their education. Plus, you might not lose older relatives while they're in school.
All six of my Sims graduated with Honors. Erik Cantrell (my Global Superstar) had all 'A's each of the three Terms. In fact all did well, plenty of 'A's all around. Find your rhythm, keep your game on pause as you check just what each student under your control has to do and then go for it. Nothing wrong if you want to take just one through at first. I started with the siblings because I only wished to go through it the one time. LOL Good luck to you. In the end I found it so much fun, too. Just remember that pause button is your friend.
