YA pregnancy?
HRH Posie:
Sorry, but I cannot get your method to work at all SimsHost. I have two students named Tom Freshe and Simon Goldman living in the ‘Broke' Fraternity. They were halfway through their final semester so I played them and let them graduate. They are now living in the fraternity with 70 hours left before they need to leave campus. Ex-member Zack Hourvitz lives in Pleasantview and as he is best friends with both of them, he asked them both over. I did not have a propose move in option so I'm not sure what's happening with your game. As mentioned above, sims in the regular neighbourhood can only invite YA townies to move in and they immediately transition into adults. Player sims need to drop out of college or graduate before they move to the sim bin ready for merging into a household. As phyllisp mentioned, you cannot propose move in when living in a dorm either ??? Sorry, but I can't see how you can move sims from campus to the neighbouhood without resorting to hacks or cheats.

... The option to "propose move in" isn't available to dormies...
Erm... in my game, dormies can invite people to move in. I was unaware that this is not a feature of the base game.
It's not the Testing Cheats (see below), so I'm wondering if maybe it's the teenwoohoo_6 hack. That hack pre-dates Unverisity. It has a feature that allows you to move in townies of any age so that you can rescue children and teens from Never Never Land. (It also allows teens to woohoo, of course.)
Cheats Used in This Story
I noted in the little step-by-step story above that I used the Testing Cheats to revert adult and elder characters to Young Adult so that they could go to school once they got on campus. I also used the motherlode like crazy in order to build that outrageous Manse Collegium. There are two scenes where I used move_objects on to position baby Barry in flight. Other than that, no cheats at all were involved in the "Bennetts go to college" story.
I have never used the Testing Cheats to move in a sim. If you wanted to do that, you would use the Tombstone of Life and Death, which you can spawn with the Testing Cheats; however, it does not apply here.
Just now, I went into the Technophiles dorm at Happy Valley U to test it. Look at this:
Helen Hanks proposes Move In to Greg
I'm guessing that when you wrote "boolprop" you meant specifically the testingcheatsenabled property. There are a bazillion boolean properties in the game, so just saying "boolprop" is rather ambiguous. Anyhow, yes, I did have the Testing Cheats enabled when I did this screen shot. You can see the tell-tale version number in the upper right-hand corner of the screen shot.
So, I turned off the Testing Cheats (boolprop testingcheatsenabled false), but Helen could still invite Greg to Move In.
Babies on Campus
Now, just to make it even more confusing: See Yvonne Sack cuddling little Ivan?
I checked back in the diary for this dorm to make sure, and I was wrong about babies not being born on campus. Ivan Sack was conceived in this very dorm. Yvonne ran around naked for a couple of days (which made for some interesting screen shots), and ta da!, there he was! There wasn't room for a nursery in this dorm so she keeps his crib in the cafeteria.
I haven't played this dorm long enough to be sure; however, since some of the students are in their second semester, I'm guessing that Ivan is not aging beyond infancy.
B'b'but... somewhere around here I have other fragrant sims whose pregnancies are not progressing. I do not understand this.

FWIW, my name is Greg. "SimsHost" is just one of my /c/r/i/m/e/s/ /a/g/a/i/n/s/t/ /n/o/r/m/a/l/c/y/ web sites.
(The sim "Greg" is my viewpoint character. He's the primary guilty party and handy victim for just about anything odd that happens in my game.)

As I mentioned in my note immediately above, it might be Jenflower's WooHooTeens_6a_EP hack. (That's a link to thread at MTS2). That is the only hack in my game, that I can think of, that would make it possible for me to invite playable Young Adults to move in. All the other base hacks I have are either FFS or TwoJeffs.
I'm also an Inge Jones junkie, but I don't think any of Inge's creations would do this.

This again could be a phenomenon of the Jenflower's WooTeens_6a_EP hack. It's been in my game for so long that I'd just about forgotten it was there. Even if you don't want your teens to woohoo, I recommend it because it makes it easy to rescue townie kids and teens from Never Never Land. That's how Meadow became a playable character in my game.

If all else fails, use the teleporter bush. It's one of those handy objects that is good for fixing weird screw ups in the game code.

Oops. To be precise: I use a lot of the FFS and TwoJeffs hacks and toys. I used the College Clock extensively to get the Bennetts through college as quickly as possible while allowing the anchor sims (Gloria and Della) to dawdle on campus.
When I discovered that their children can't go to school while on campus, I wanted to get them home right away. And besides, at the venerable age of 117, Gregsim isn't really interested in trying to keep up with a bunch of college kids!
