Probation and suspension

Is anyone else having a problem with their sims being put on probation or getting suspended when they’re doing all the work and getting good grades during the semester? It has been happening to me a lot lately. I don’t know if this is due to the patch or some other bug. It’s really frustrating.

    @love7680 same thing happened to my sims father I sent him back to university so he could make more money in the engineering field I switched households and came back and he was put on probation then suspended I had him drop out and start all over


    I read on one of the Uni guides that rotational play is NOT an option for this, which is a bummer because I like playing rotationally as well, so I will have to finish one degree with one household before I can switch it up.
  • I haven't experienced it myself, but I read on another thread that it most certainly is an annoying consequence of rotational playstyle.
  • @Purplebutterfly:
    Even guides aren't always right.
    Rotational play is totally possible with DU.
    You just have to take care to switch households on Friday before 18.00 p. m. (I personally switch households at 17.59 p. m.), that way you will be able to actively play a whole semester (provided you enroll directly after you switched households). You can also stay until Saturday when your Sim graduates to attend the ceremony and switch households directly afterwards, provided that you don't switch to a household you'd wish to enroll for the first time afterwards (time will be too short for that).

    It happened to me. But I think my issue was that I play between households. And in doing so the household that I wasn't playing, that sim (Mom) would be put on probation then suspended. Even though I would go to that sim(mom) to make sure her homework/studies were completed. I would then go to the sim (the daughter) living by campus to have her experience tge campus life. I'm guessing since I wasn't playing my other sim (Mom) when she needed to go to school is why she was put on probation and then suspended! Totally plum!!!


    This seems to be what happens to me when I play between households. It just happened again. My Sim ended the semester with all A's. I played another household and came back to her at the dorm and she was on academic probation. I'll have to be more careful with that.
