Have you ever played The Sims 4 and wondered why your Sim keeps getting expelled from high school or university? It can be frustrating to watch your hard-working Sim getting expelled for no apparent reason at the end of every day.
Well, there are various reasons why your Sims might be getting the boot. Let’s explore why they might not be able to make the grade and what you can do about it.
Why does my Sim keep getting expelled in The Sims 4?
If your Sim constantly skips classes, fails their exams, and starts fights with other students, they’re going to be expelled. If your Sim is a high-school student and gets caught while pranking their colleagues’ lockers, the principal may expel them.
But what if your Sim is no troublemaker? Why does a straight-A student suddenly get expelled?
That’s probably a bug.
The Sims 4 is plagued by a bug where your Sims get expelled over and over. Because of this bug, your Sim will get a strike every day you are at school. They’ll get expelled after 3 strikes.
Normally, you would get a strike when you do something that gets you in trouble.
In other words, this bug is preventing the strike counter from resetting.
So, what’s the solution?
How to prevent The Sims 4 from expelling your Sim
If your Sim’s bad behavior is not the reason why they’re getting expelled, install The Sims 4 Don’t get expelled mod. This mod gives you 10,000 strikes before getting expelled.
The mod cancels the bug that gives students a strike every day they are at school forcing the game to automatically expel them after 3 strikes.
This can be incredibly frustrating, especially if academic success and is a top priority for your Sim.
This annoying bug has been plaguing Simmers since August 2022. Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope EA solves this problem soon.
