Utilidorm for University
witch:
Yeah, you can create new lots, of course, but I find I cannot place dorms on dorm lots, they have to be Community lots with no visitors allowed before I can place the dorm. I don't know if that's natural game behaviour or if it's to do with Nrass Travellers' mod, which is what I use to allow me to change the lot type to Dormitory. The native game will not allow selection of Dormitory as a lot type.
TL:DR If you make a new 40 x 40 lot and set it as Community with no visitors allowed, you should be able to place the dorm.
ETA: There are no guest toilets :D There is, however, a tunnel under the dorm connecting the two sets of lift capsules. (From when I was still trying to get the townie dormies to use the lifts.) You could extend and make guest toilets, or just sling a couple of those all-in-one toilet/showers in the tunnel.

I'll have to experiment and see what I come up with as I like the futuristic dorm and want to use it for my sims, I have recently started using the Nrass Traveler to make Isla Paradisio a vacation world so my sims can do the scuba diving stuff, so next time I am playing I'll have to mess with Uni and try and see what I can make work before I send my sim there. At least I know the worst case scenario is removing one of the existing dorms and replacing it with this will make it work as a dorm.
witch:
The lot will retain its dormitory status, even in the home neighbourhood, but you can set it to residential if you want to use it there. It will be fine on a comm lot in Uni, promise.

I got the dorm placed nicely, but had a couple of problems after moving my sims in. First was they wouldn't use the tubes unless I directly clicked on the and selected which floor to send them too, a minor issue which has occurred in my sims house, and easily fixed by replacing them. The second and biggest issue was when the game created the extra roomies to fill the dorm, they were actually added to my household as controllable, last thing I need/want is a household of 8+ sims (unless they are all mine sent to Uni).
Have you had issue with the extra sims being added to your active household?
witch:
No, not at all. :/
