No Bills At Dorms
Berney:
It's great that this issue was solved, but why does it occur? (Just curious.)

I have been using this dorm without a problem since my founder started Uni, but when the bills stopped coming I downloaded a couple more to see if it was just that one lot.
Oh, yea, I grabbed Nec's 2 dorms -- they're pretty nice. I also have some from MTS2 that were made by starrling -- her Brixham set has a lot of nice uni buildings (and others).

I believe the idea is that sims with families have their parents cover their bills, wheras CAS YAs don't have anyone to foot the bill so get to pay their own bills ::)

I think you're giving EAxis too much credit there. I don't believe there was any logical sense to it. That CAS sims get bills is because EAxis forgot to tie some necessary coding into CAS creation that is normally implemented when you move a sim over from the base 'hood.
I don't think there should be dorm bills as I make everything rough for them as it is. No dorm bills and free land is about the only thing my sims get handed to them. Scholarships go to their tuition unless their parents are rich and can afford the $20k or $8k (depending on the school) or if they are kids of the mayor and going to the tech school. Then they have nothing and can suffer to get to the point where they can put a roof over their heads and pay their 10% property taxes every season, as well as their mortgages.
Figwit:
Actually I wondered if it had something to do with one of the scholarships the students can get awarded. I always use the same dorm (though different games) and always have born-in-game sims. Sometimes they get bills and sometimes they don't. I have never taken note of what particular scholarships they got prior to going to Uni but I assumed that maybe there was one that covered the cost of Uni.
