Also HATED that I had to SELL MY HOUSE to send my sim to school??? That makes NO sense. I moved in a random townie to "hold" the house as is while my sim was away at school. I don't think I'll be sending any more sims to school and the rest will take their classes from home.
Also once you go to pick classes, the game moves you IMMEDIATELY with NO warning. I didn't have time to pack my laptop, or medicine, or anything else I wanted my sim to bring with them. It says in the description to bring things and then gives you NO time to pack at all. I had to quit and lose about 2 hours of playtime just to make up for the fact.
Why does this not make sense to you? You move out. You leave that house. Aka you don't live there anymore.
As for classes... the game tell you when you get your acceptance letter to pack up your stuff.
I wrongly assumed moving into a dorm (temporary) would be treated the Same as going on vacation (also temporary) to either vacation world. You don't sell your home to go on vacation, and you shouldn't sell your home to go to uni.
If there was a warning on the acceptance letter I missed it. I only noticed a note when choosing where to live after picking classes when I was enrolling, it had a note in there about it, but by the time I saw that it was too late to go and pack some things up. I assumed my sim would be leaving the following morning, not 2am when he enrolled.
This same thing happens when the sim goes for another semester. I wasn't warned when the current semester was going to be over, and my sim was kicked from his dorm (his laptop was delivered to him) without any sort of preamble. It was very jarring and simply unrealistic in that regard.
This is odd. IF I chose to switch dorms I get an event timer, like when you're on a date or something, in the upper left corner showing how much time i have to pack my stuff before moving out. AND the game gives me a notification "you better start packing up your stuff".
