The Sims 4: Student Organizations
A really fun way to add to your sim’s university experience is to get them to join an organization and get involved in school. This will help them make friends, gain skills, and have a more fun time in school.
There are 3 organizations at each University, and your sim is free to join any of them. These are different than the two after school activities, however, which are soccer team and e-sports gamer.
In this guide we are going to discuss how to join the organizations on campus, and all the aspects of each individual organization so you can make an informed decision before getting your sim to join one.
How to Join an Organization
There is only one way to join an organization, and that is to ask a member to let you join!
To do this, you should go to an event for the organization which you wish to be a part of, and find a member of that organization and introduce yourself. Then, a social interaction should appear that lets you ask them to let you join.
You’ll immediately be part of the organization and will have it’s events and tasks in your organizations panel.
It is possible for a single sim to be in more than one organization at a time, however, they are going to take a huge part out of your sim’s week, so along with classes, you may run out of time to juggle it all.
We suggest you stick to one organization at a time if you want to do well in school.
