Sims Repeating Freshman Semester 1
vcline:
I sent 2 teens to Uni from Riverblossom, and when their grade bar filled up, I used the college clock to send them to finals. But when they returned from finals, I didn't get notified that they passed with an A+, they didn't get any money, and they are back at the start of freshman year, even though their grade point average shows as 4.0.
I have sent other sims to finals with the clock before and since this episode with no problem. I'm using one of Maxis' dorms. I have all EPs and SPs and MATY hacks, with very few other hacks (no kitten/puppy killers). Any idea how to fix this? How would I use SimPE to credit them with the appropriate history? I don't care about memories or the money, I just want them to be at the start of semester 2 of freshman year.

Well if you just want to move them TwoJeffs college adjuster should enable that for you http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,1236.0.html
But I've never heard of this strange non-progressive behaviour. The closest I've seen is when I make NPC dormies selectable. If they go off to their exam they come back and get the money, but reset to the first semester again when they are made unselectable again. Have you considered asking the two wierd ones to move in with other Sims to see if they were just set wrong when you moved them into Uni?

Well, I just came here looking for an answer to the same question!
I have two townies that I have sent to uni in a custom hood. One of them advances at the end of the first freshman semester, but the other doesn't. The one that advances gets the money, the one that repeats doesn't. And she has a locked want of making the dean's list, but the want isn't satisfied because it doesn't seem to recognize that she has completed her final exam and has a 4.0 gpa.
I tried deleting the repeater before she goes to the final exam, moved her out and back in, moved them both out and into another dorm, took out all hacks, forced errors, etc., but she keeps going back to the first semester and no grant, no notifications that she passed.
I'm not using the college clock. And I'd like to be able to give her the credit she deserves, grant money, etc. Any help from anyone more awesome than me?
ETA: I just had her do her final exam again, and she did get the grant money and the memory of making the dean's list, but the want wasn't satisfied. She still went back to semester one of her freshman year. I went into SimPE and changed her uni semester value from 1 to 2 and she is now in freshman semester 2, with the correct class for her major.
But I still would like to know why this happened. I have all EP's and the Glamour and Family Fun packs, but I haven't had this happen with any other YAs. Probably another EA "feature", I suppose.

The only thing I've heard like this is the teen in the Ottomas family having to repeat the first semster...

This seems to be a known issue that occurs with buggy Maxis premade sims. No one really knows why.
