Welcome to The Sims 2 University! Part 2

Hey Folks,

It's time for another T-Mail!

In the real world, young adulthood serves as a touchstone in the lives of nearly everyone. So many of life's big moments are crammed inside this fleetingly short span of time nestled snuggly between childhood wonder and adult travails that it's hard to imagine there's still room left over for things like sleep and basic hygiene. Whether you're aching for the increased responsibility and added freedom that young adulthood brings (but you're not ready to tackle full-on adulthood just yet), or if you just want to recapture that vibrant time of life where just about anything seemed possible, The Sims 2 University has plenty to offer both the legitimately young and the merely young-at-heart.

The cornerstone of The Sims 2 University is an entirely new phase of life for your Sims – Young Adulthood. While Sims of all ages will be able to enjoy the new objects, activities and locations found in The Sims 2 University, the young adulthood life stage can only be experienced by sending your teenage Sims off to the Bacchanalian free-for-all known as college…er, we mean the rigorous and disciplined hallowed halls of Academia!

Young Adulthood occupies 20 Sim Days, which affords ample opportunity to soak up some collegiate spirit. You'll be able to indulge in all the traditional college leisure pursuits, like starting a band, playing pranks on unsuspecting Sims, hanging with buddies on the quad, and of course, keeping your Sim well hydrated with beverages (non-alcoholic, of course) at all-out ragers. You'll need to keep at least one bleary eye on your grades through all this – flunk out of school and you'll quickly find yourself "graduated" into adulthood prematurely – nobody wants that! Fortunately, you'll also be able to coerce other Sims more skilled in the nerdly arts to do your homework for you – phew!

In short, young adulthood serves as a gateway to a larger world that can seem both exhilarating and challenging. Whether or not you hunger for some higher learning, The Sims 2 University opens up a whole new world of possibilities for all your Sims, both back home and on campus. Are you ready to get schooled?
