University Question: - Have you had a sim forced to: "Packing up and leaving university housing"?

So I finally wanted to give University a new chance after avoiding sending my sims there forever.
(- Seriously It's like Im doing homework and studying all over again! I get stressed about making it to classes in time, go to guest lectures, do research and trying to fiend a way in to the secret society! - Is that even possible?!?)

Anyway, I just returned to a household living on campus in a dorm. 2 sims, one could sign up for a new term automatically and the other had to enrol again.
While doing this the last one got a message saying He should "Pack up he's stuff and move out" of the dormitory since he was no longer enrolled. But now he was enrolled again. - But I can't save, travel, enter CAS or do anything else with the household than stay on the active dorm lot.
Every other option is faded out and give me the text that I can't do that while the sim is "Packing up and leaving university housing". But he's not leaving. He went to class, and he went to work... He's not doing anything that suggest he's packing up and leaving. He paid for the term and the dorm. He can't use any moving-out options.

Has anyone else experienced this?
Or anything alike?

I guess the only think I can do is "Withdraw from Term" or ""Drop out of University", but I don't really wanna compromise he's education and/or loose he's scholarships.

Any good suggestions on what to do?


(Oh and if you have managed to get in to the secret society please tell me how?!?! - Im starting to thing it's a glitch. I befriended them and observed their gathering, but I can only ask them about it and then they leave and dont wanna talk about it...!?! Sure your secret, but you don't have to be impossible!)
  • I haven't really tried getting my sims to become a secret society member since Sims 2. But Carl Sims talks about how to become a member.

    Has the attending University got fixed yet? I haven't played it since 3 years ago & would love to play the University gameplay again.

    Thank you - sorry for my late reply.
    I just read what he's said about it, and it's definitely broken. I have made several (great) offerings and never had a visit. I even befriended the society members and crashed their meetings several times. You can ask them about it, and then they leave... It's the same each time.

    It's very bugged! I wanted to give it a new try, but I think im done unless it gets a serious update. No education for my sims. - It seems like they (tried to) make the High School pack into what university isn't - with (semi) active classes, clubs and parties.

    This sure didn't work. I was stuck in the household so I tried to play an entire semester (one week, but still...) to see if that would fix the problem not signing up for next term. I ended in a infinity loop with them having to leave their uni housing, but each time they where ready to leave it started over. I tried everything, but I couldn't get out of it without exiting the game without saving. Such a waste of time! So yeah, not cool.

    They do go to classes, but those not living on campus still don't leave until the class starts. If they get distracted they get very late or miss the class entirely. Worst is when they have classes back to back. It's way to stressful! :smiley:
