The “Get to Work” expansion added two full universities to the game: Britechester and Foxbury. One focuses on liberal arts with corresponding gold majors and diplomas, the other is technical. But if one feature exists, why not add a similar one? Occult Sims can also study their own specialties!
The Sims 4 “University of Magic – Third University in the Game” mod by LalaMod adds a fully functional magic university to the game. You can apply for admission, choose majors and courses, receive scholarships, live in dorms, interact with various lots, and more. This is truly the third university in the game, but magical…
Education
Eight degree paths with all courses fully implemented + career bonuses for completing studies (currently supports careers from the base game and “Get to Work” only; new options coming soon).
Lot and Setup
Venue types — Plumberts Common Room with 4 professors and 1 ghost NPC. The lot must be manually configured before it appears in the game. Therefore, you must first select the corresponding lot type in Build Mode.
Additional objects are needed for fine-tuning the Plumberts Common Room. They allow you to attract professors to specific areas of the lot. For example, if you want the Herbology professor to spend more time in the greenhouse, simply place a lure there.
CAS for Existing Professors
To customize your own professors, the author recommends enabling cheats: testingcheats true -> cas.fulleditmode. Then hold Shift, click on the desired professor, and choose to edit in CAS.
Neighbor generation in dorms has been improved and changed so that they are mages and occult Sims.
Study Paths
Four houses: Hogsneffle, GrizzleGate, Ruckwing, and Snivelight. They operate through the organization system and already include weekly pub nights (configurable in settings). You can join a house by attending one of the scheduled events and asking a member, or by asking one of the professor NPCs on the Plumberts Common Room lot.
Hogsneffle — Herbology
GrizzleGate — Defense Against the Dark Arts
Ruckwing — Charms
Snivelight — Potions
Known Issues
Moving into a university dorm may cause the UI to crash if the family inventory has never been opened. This is a base game bug, not a mod issue.
Currently, there is no way to join a house before enrollment, so it is impossible to move into any university dorm lots tied to a house until the second semester. Regular dorms not tied to a house work fine. All study paths automatically accept applicants until the author completes balancing admission requirements. Courses currently only develop skills, not spells or wizard rank. This will be added later.
Regarding Translation
The mod is localized, but the author moved the mod settings into a script file that cannot be translated in any way. Therefore, translators are powerless to change anything, even if using different applications.
Requirements
The mod requires Basemental Universal Venue List or a similar alternative like Zerbu Venue Changes. The mod includes Russian localization.
