That was one of ancient highways mods wasn't it? If so, he has left the community but some of his stuff has been uploaded at simbology.

Thank you for answering. After your suggestion, I mined that site, but I guess that mod has left the community along with Ancient Highway. I think I'll just pick an arbitrary amount to charge for college and deduct it from the family. I had a family with one child and a servant who also had one child. All adults died when Adam was a teen, so college was out for him because he had to raise Minerva, the late servant's child. I couldn't bear the thought of her being able to go to college when Adam couldn't.

If sims have a scholarship, isn't money removed before the next semester starts? I thought I remembered seeing money subtracted and have no mods for it. My guess is those who don't have scholarships are getting a free ride, all my sims get scholarships or don't go.

Thanks guys. I looked at all AH's stuff and read through the threads of those uploading his files and still nothing.

Scholarships do give money, but it's used to pay for college, or so I thought. Haven't done any college for awhile but thought I remembered seeing a pop-up about paying for the next semester, I could be wrong. With 8 playables, all with tuition money, there was plenty of money in the house so I never noticed.

There was a file in that Simbology link that had tuition added. Post 21 by Chaavik. I went and looked because it's something I'd like myself. Unfortunately it's attached to a bigger bills hack, but that might not bother you.

hmm, I saw the bigger bills hack, but didn't notice the other. I don't want the bigger bills, though, so I guess it's a no go. I should have grabbed it years ago.

AncientHighway has become active again (at least in the forums) at Simbology every once in a while.
According to this post: http://www.simbology.com/smf/index.php?topic=9066.0 College isn't free is series of mods.

It's definitely that post of Chaavik's where it shows up - the bigger bills and tuition costs might be separate within the zip?

I know Cyjon has done a set of mods relating to college, that might be worth a look too.

I use the sims as a psychology simulator...

I had looked it up to see if there are any college expenses. The only thing I found was they just pay the normal bills for where they live. So the expenses are actually in paying rent in a single house, or a sim buying a bigger house and turns it into a Greek house, which is how I prefer to play, or a dorm where they all share in paying regular bills. With the Greek house, all play-ables along with their scholarship money, any other money that comes in like selling paintings, food, fish, working at random jobs, selling un-needed date gifts or any other ways keeps them going very well. Using this house as some graduate and new playables move in adds up to a nice tidy sum. I've had houses with over $500k this way. After graduating, I used the check system and shared the household money with each sim that was there. Over time there was no need for furnishing it since all sims contributed in decorating with their art of events during their stay.
To start the Greek house, Tech9 contributed the money to buy a place and necessary furnishings to start, it was named The Smith Memorial Greek House, in his honor. After a few rounds of students, the money was paid back to him.

Hi, guys. The two mods are together in the zip. There's no way to download part and not all. I contacted Gommeluit (?) on this site and asked whether he/she could edit out the higher bills, leaving just the tuition mod for those of us who want that. He/she said he/she would add it to the list of projects already promised and try to get to it this summer. I'll revive this thread when I hear from her. Thanks to EVERYONE who helped me. Said it before and I'll say it again, you guys rock. This is a great community full of helpful people
