The best advice I can give is to study from home. There are no benefits to living on campus apart from being able to attend festivals on location without a loading screen, but if your sim has time for that, you're probably taking it slow anyway. I tried it once and hated every single day of it.
Studying from home grants you a fully functional kitchen and optional company by playable roommates/family that don't study and can take care of things like cooking and cleaning while your student focuses on university. It also means that when it's time to go to class, your student just steps out of the door and disappears, rather than having to walk all the way to the right building (which is especially painful in Foxbury with its many, many stairs, the bikes that came with the same pack are basically useless there).
Of course, being a vampire or spellcaster helps, as well as building the Research & Debate skill (level 3 means faster homework) or simply not cramming your schedule with four classes, but I always do the latter because as a rotational player, I don't want to be stuck with the same household for more than three consecutive weeks. So yeah, university is definitely a challenge that you have to learn how to handle first.
