Colleges are a type of sub-neighborhood in The Sims 2: University and The Sims 3: University Life. College sub-neighborhoods in The Sims 2: University are exceptions to the general rule that sub-neighborhoods exist in a sort of "time warp". Since college households in The Sims 2: University are distinct units, how much time passes "back home" while Sims are at college is completely under the player's control. __TOC__
