University life isn't all pizza, parties and streaking. Some young Sims are actually there to learn and do well in school. There are many things you can do--some honest and some dishonest--to get your Sim to the top of her class in Sims 2: University.

Honest Ways to Get Good Grades

Step1
Meet all required skill level minimums before the semester is over. If you don't have the minimum skills required for the semester, you can still pass the class but you will have no chance of getting the maximum grade. Make sure this is a priority.
Step2
Go to class. Sims get credit towards their final grade by just showing up, so make sure your Sim goes to class each day when the alert comes up that class is in one hour. Even if your Sim is sleeping, drag him out of bed and send him to class in his pajamas. It's better than not going at all.
Step3
Complete your daily assignments. It only takes about one Sim hour to complete an assignment, but it goes a long way to keeping your grades at the top level. To do this, click on your Sim and choose "College" and "Do Assignment." She will sit down at a desk, table, or on the floor and scribble in her notebook for awhile.
Step4
Do research. You can do this by clicking on any bookshelf and selecting "Do Research." Researching is more effective, however, when other Sims join you. To get others to join, click on the Sim you would like to research with and select "Join Research." Up to five Sims can research together.
Step5
Write your semester term paper. Completing this task can go a long way toward getting that A. To do this, click on a computer and select "College" and "Write Term Paper." It will take your Sim about three Sim hours to complete.
Step6
Meet with your professor and ask her for tutoring. This can be done by calling the professor on the phone and inviting her over. Then, when she comes to your Sim's residence, click on her and select "Ask for Tutoring."
Step7
Attend the final exam, and make sure you do so on time. Being late to it can cost you precious grade points. Throughout the semester, you will see a progress bar showing how many hours until the final exam. You will get an alert when it is five hours away and again when it is one hour away.

Dishonest Ways to Get Good Grades

Step1
Influence other students to do your assignments or write your term paper for you. If your Sim has accumulated enough influence, she will be able to perform this action by clicking on the target Sim, selecting "Influence to" and the desired action.
Step2
Hack into your grades on the computer. If your Sim is a member of the Secret Society, this action will be available to you on any computer. It's risky, as you can get caught and end up with a fine and confiscation of your computer. Sims with a high logic skill are more likely to be able to get away with hacking grades.
Step3
Have an affair with your professor. Each time your Sim engages in a WooHoo interaction with a professor, he gets credit toward his grade.
