My sim (a teen who graduated early from high school) is currently enrolled in the fox bury institution. I would like them to join the bot savants however when i talk to members, there is no option to do so. Am i doing something wrong or is this a glitch, as i have been able to join them with another (young adult sim) pre-high school years.

@ech0gecko And you tested without mods/CC to make sure that's not causing this ?

Is your sim still a teen?  There's a lot of stuff teens can't do until they age up even if they graduated high school.

I'm seeing the same issue in my vanilla game. I'm also seeing robotics club members show "teach robotics" - not sure if related. I tried using a cheat to apply the org to my sim, but it didn't do anything.

Ik currently have a teen. In university thanks to the high school expansion he was able to enroll in esports once I saved my game and opened it back up the career was gone and no way to rejoin i tried going to the building he was only able to watch I’m confused cause he got a scholarship and everything

So, my teenage early graduate can't join esports, nor any organization until she ages up? That really defeats the purpose of trying to be an esports gamer with my genius teen early graduate.

EA really needs to rethink restricting access to these...

@AlorielLelyn I moved your post over to the thread on the teen

The same thoughts. It reminds me of my story in college when I had perfect grades and couldn't get a place in the local newspaper. I never found out what it was connected with, but that incident helped me learn to overcome any difficulties and achieve my own. Then I started to get involved in writing to show those who refused me work what they missed. You can read my story about this in the list of free adversity essay samples in the public domain. Now I'm working as an editor for a major magazine, and I appreciate the lesson I've been taught. I don't know, maybe this is not a bug in the game, but the developers are just trying to make everything as close to real life as possible.
