The Sims 3: University Life

The Sims 3: University Life is the ninth expansion pack for The Sims 3. After rumors circulating through listings and ratings, Electronic Arts announced the expansion pack an hour before the live chat was broadcast on January 8, 2013. There is also a limited edition available which includes the Partaeus Maximus statue. University Life will be released on March 5, 2013 in North America, March 7, 2013 in Europe, and March 8, 2013 in United Kingdom.

University Life 's theme is college, similar to University in The Sims 2, thus it gives the Sims a "college experience" while at university. It has brought some returning features from The Sims 2's expansion packs, as well as introduced new features for The Sims 3. The pack is Seasons-compatible.

Description
''Are your Sims ready for the time of their lives? Heading off to university opens up new opportunities, from social connections to career growth. From class activities to major-specific objects, your Sim will find new ways to learn! And university isn’t just about hitting the books. Join a protest, flirt at a bonfire party—there’s a lot to learn outside of lectures at the student union. With new locations like the bowling alley and SimBurger to explore, and new activities like juice pong and spray painting murals to enjoy, your Sims are sure to have the time of their lives!''

Features

 * Achieve Academic Excellence. Learning is more fun than ever with new major-specific objects. Your Sims can broadcast their own radio show as a Communications student or bone up on anatomy using the skeleton as a Science and Medicine major. Your Sims can also learn through class activities, lectures at the student union, and joining in social activities.
 * Get Ready to Party! Text books and study groups are a big part of college, but sometimes Sims just need to party! From hosting bonfires by the lake to doing juice keg stands at a dorm party, there are lots of ways to have a great time and let loose.
 * Make Connections and Network. Grow your social networking skill through texting, blogging and streaming videos. This builds your affiliation with the three social groups on campus – the Nerds, the Rebels and the Jocks. Building your cred with these groups offers unique advantages, from earning dream jobs to a coveted extra trait.
 * Actions Matter. Just like in real life, your Sims’ decisions are deeply interconnected. For example, a Fine Arts student benefits from the Avant Garde trait, and develops their Street Art skill and cred with the Rebels by tagging and spray painting. Just don’t let your Sims get caught by the cops!
 * Reap Benefits After University Too! Help your Sims reach the top job in your career path more easily with faster promotions and a higher entry-level job for university grads. If your Sim becomes a legend with their social group, they may even land a dream job as an art appraiser, sports agent, or video game developer!
 * Explore the Campus and Town. From striking out at the bowling alley to flirting with the barista at the Roasted Toasted Beans to browsing comic books at Keith’s Komics, there’s a whole new town and campus full of places to explore.
