Overview
University is an optional education system in inZOI available to Young Adult Zois. Unlike elementary and high school (which are mandatory for younger Zois), university enrollment is entirely the player's choice. There are 3 degree programs across 2 campus locations. University takes approximately 7 to 10 in-game days to complete and provides a diploma on the Zoi's profile upon graduation. Enrollment is instant with no admission requirements or tuition fees.
Campuses
Campus | City | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Youngsung School | Main campus, located in the northeast of Dowon. Also referred to as "University of Youngsung" in career listings. | |
Bliss Bay University | Alternative campus in the southwest of Bliss Bay, south of Golden Apple Burger. Also known as "Bliss Bay Public School." |

Both campuses offer the same three degree programs and identical schedules. Choose based on which city your Zoi lives in for a shorter commute. The default commute method is by bus; Zois with personal vehicles can drive instead.
The Cahaya island (added in the Island Getaway DLC) has Cahaya Harmony School, but this is a Swimming Learning Center rather than a traditional university campus. It teaches the Swimming skill to Zois aged teen and older and does not offer degree programs.
How to Enroll
Ensure your Zoi is in the Young Adult life stage.
Be on a Household Lot (not a community lot).
Open the smartphone by pressing P or tapping the purple phone icon.
Navigate to the School App.
Select a campus and degree program.
Enrollment is instant. There is no entrance exam, GPA requirement, or tuition fee.
Important restrictions:
Zois cannot hold a job while enrolled. If your Zoi has a career, they must quit before enrolling.
Applying for any job (even part-time) while enrolled will automatically drop the Zoi from university without warning.
The 7 to 10 day commitment means lost income during that period. Plan accordingly by saving money or having another household member working.
Degree Programs
Degree | Aligned Skills | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Business Administration | Develops social and persuasion skills useful for management and business careers. | |
Computer Science | Develops analytical and technical skills for technology and development careers. | |
Multimedia Arts | Develops creative skills. By graduation, Zois typically reach top Media Production levels, enabling profitable video creation earning up to 2,000 Mew per video. |
During class, players can click the Zoi's portrait in the sidebar and use the graduation cap icon to select activities. Hovering over each activity shows which skills are being developed. Each activity develops skills tied to the chosen major.
Class Schedule
Classes run 3 days per week, from approximately 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
University is a rabbit hole. Your Zoi goes to campus and you have limited direct control during class hours.
On non-class days (4 days per week plus evenings), the Zoi is free to pursue other activities, go on dates, plan social events, and practice skills.
During class, the Zoi's needs (hunger, energy, social, fun) continue to decay normally. This is a common source of frustration. Before sending the Zoi to class, make sure hunger and energy are stable. A hungry Zoi loses Energy faster, and a Zoi with low Social may find less Fun in activities.
You can slow need decay by spending Meow Coins at the Meow Store: hunger decay reduction costs 100 Meow Coins and sleep decay reduction costs 300 Meow Coins.
Homework
Homework is the primary factor in academic success and the most demanding part of university life.

How Homework Works
At the end of each university day, your Zoi receives 2 homework tasks with tight deadlines (only a few in-game hours, sometimes as little as 1 hour after class ends at 5 PM).
Tasks cannot be completed during class since the Zoi is inside the rabbit hole.
Completing homework on time improves academic performance. Missing deadlines or skipping classes results in performance penalties that can delay graduation.
Homework Types
Type | How to Complete | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
Computer tasks | Click a computer and select the "Homework" tab. Choose the correct option matching the assignment instructions (research tasks, coding tasks, etc.). | A computer in the household. |
Book tasks | Select the correct book title from a bookshelf and study it completely. Simply "finishing" the book is not enough; the Zoi must continue reading even after the reading circle fills. | A bookshelf with the required book. Some books are only available at the public library, not in home bookshelves. |
Players must select the correct book or homework option. For example, a Computer Science assignment might require the book "Problem Solving Through Computational Thinking," which may need to be found at the city library or purchased as a "Stack of Books" furniture item for roughly 14 Mew.
Tracking Academic Progress
Monitor university progress through the School tab on the smartphone:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
University Location | Which campus your Zoi attends |
Schedule | Upcoming class days and times |
Academic Level | A progress bar showing current standing. Increases when homework is completed on time. Decreases when homework is missed or classes are skipped. Reaching maximum takes approximately one week with consistent attendance. |
Attendance | Number of classes attended versus missed |
Absences | Number of classes skipped. Exceeding 3 absences results in expulsion. |
There is no formal GPA system, letter grades, or academic honors. The Academic Level bar is the sole measure of progress.
Graduation
Graduation occurs when either of these conditions is met:

The Zoi has attended at least 6 class sessions (approximately 7 to 10 in-game days depending on schedule).
The Zoi ages up from Young Adult to Adult. This triggers automatic graduation regardless of attendance count.
Upon graduation, the Zoi's profile is updated to show a university diploma with their degree. Graduation is confirmed via a text message on the smartphone. There is currently no visual graduation ceremony, cap-and-gown scene, or celebratory event.
Known bug with aging disabled: If the aging system is turned off, Zois cannot graduate even after 10+ attendances. This is because graduation is primarily tied to the aging mechanic. The workaround is to temporarily enable aging to trigger graduation, then disable it again.
Withdrawal (Dropping Out)
Open the Career App on the smartphone.
Go to My Information.
Click the "Drop Out" button.
Warning: Dropping out resets the Zoi's academic level entirely. All progress toward graduation is lost. If you re-enroll later, you start from scratch. You also cannot switch majors directly; you must drop out and re-enroll in a different program.
Career Impact
In the current Early Access build, degrees provide no direct career benefits:
No career paths require a university degree.
Degrees do not unlock specific jobs or promotions.
Even the University Professor career (Assistant Professor at 342 Mew/day, Full Professor at 930 Mew/day, Distinguished Professor at 1,920 Mew/day) does not require any degree.
The diploma is a profile achievement with no mechanical benefit.
The primary practical value is the free skill development through coursework aligned with the chosen degree. The Multimedia Arts degree is particularly valuable because graduates typically reach top-level Media Production, enabling high-earning video creation.
The 2026 roadmap mentions improved career features including performance evaluation and interviews, which may eventually tie into degree relevance, but nothing has been confirmed.
Tips
Ensure your household has a computer and bookshelf before enrolling. Homework requires both. Some book assignments need specific titles only found at the city library.
Complete homework immediately when assigned. Deadlines are tight, sometimes leaving only 1 hour after class ends at 5 PM.
Feed your Zoi and let them rest before class. Needs decay during the rabbit hole and cannot be addressed until class ends.
Choose a degree that aligns with your Zoi's existing skills for faster leveling. Multimedia Arts is the best money-making choice thanks to Media Production income.
Plan for 7 to 10 days without income. Save money beforehand, or earn informal income by selling crafted items, books, or programs (these do not count as "jobs" and will not trigger auto-drop).
The automatic graduation on aging up means you can enroll late in the Young Adult stage and still graduate.
Never exceed 3 absences or the Zoi will be expelled.
If aging is disabled and your Zoi cannot graduate, temporarily enable aging as a workaround.
Do not apply for any jobs while enrolled. Even opening a job application will automatically drop the Zoi from university without warning.
