We now have a page on The Sims 4 Journey to Batuu.
It's not what I would have hoped for in a Star Wars Game Pack so far.
Britechester & Foxbury Student Organizations
Participating in Campus Groups in The Sims 4 Discover University
Head to a University Kiosk to learn the upcoming schedule for Organizations on your Sim's campus.
A major part of The Sims 4 Discover University is the campus life, and it delivers one aspect of that student experience via the Student Organizations system. Here I'll list them all out so that you can determine your options depending on which of the two Universities you're attending, and what skills/activities are involved. If there's a substantial reward, we'll look at that as well.
How to Join
Once your Sim is in one of the student organizations, the old Get Together Clubs panel is used to give you a measure of progress and activities that will increase your standing in the group.
For all but the Secret Society joining is a simple matter of going to the University Kiosk, selecting 'Get University Info' then Organization Events. This will bring up a schedule of events for your university (though it's possible to switch to the other). Note the time and either head to the location when the event is on, or you may use the Kiosk to 'Go to Event'.
When you're at an event, introduce yourself to a Sim that is likely a member (they will tend to wear similar outfits or t-shirts). You can ask to be let in, and the open nature results in a join. Now your organization panel (hotkey 'U') will change to show upcoming events, your current rank, and what you need to do in order to be promoted.
Ranking Up
Gaining Ranks in Student Organizations is pretty simple once you're in. Being friendly with other members will show a symbol above your Sim's head. Of course, completing tasks will have to be part of that process and you'll need to check off all the tasks to get a new set.
It's important to note that being friendly with other members may be key to ranking up in these, though you can only use the option so much. I managed to fill the bar nearly to full using only socials, then needed to finish the remainder of it by finishing the activities listed.

Secret Society - "Order of Enchantment"
I have a page with a bit more information on the Secret Society and everything involved with them. They can be joined no matter which of the two universities you're attending. Both campuses have a statue to which you can use, "Make Offering for Academic Success". Offering a rare metal or crystal, or excellent-quality baked goods (desserts) will result in a visit from the Secret Society the following night (bear in mind there is some cutoff late-night on which they won't come until the next evening). They'll even wake your Sim if you are asleep.
Related Skills and Activities:
Game Description: The secret of the sprites has been held precious for generations. It is truly a gift to be awoken to their blessings. Bestow the sprites with respect (or sweets) and they will graciously return the favor. Snub them and things may not go as well for you.
Joining this has a number of powerful benefits, but may rely on you doing some collecting for maximum effect. See my guide to the Secret Society (Order of Enchantment) for more information.

Can you only join the organization for your university?
No idea tbh, try it and see. Just save your game first before trying to join so you can quit without saving if you don't like the result.
I don't believe you can. My sim is attending Brightchester, but I wanted her to join the robotics org and I had her attend a few of the events. The option to join never showed up. I had her attend the debate club event and introduce herself to one member and she was able to request to join immediately.
Right, that would make sense I guess
I think the descriptions for the Spirit organizations are reversed.
How so? ?
Britechester Spirit Corps: Expect your school's Lobster Mascot or the Juice Keg to make an appearance at one or both of these gatherings. (The Lobster mascot is from Foxbury.)
Foxbury Spirit Squad: The Britechester Spirit Corps has a mission to spread the joy of school cheer in everything they do. (The BSC is obviously from UBrite, not Foxbury.)
Thank you! Amazing how I can reread and reread and still not see the issue!
After you finish with college, do any of the Organization rewards remain? Or is it just something to do while enrolled? In short, is there a point to Organizations after college?
Nothing remains so they are simply things for your Sim to do while enrolled at uni.
Good to know. Thank you so much for the answer, Playalot. I am still enjoying Organizations though
np! I enjoyed the Secret Society
The Brainiacs give you Mental Magister as a permanent reward trait when you become a Senior member (level 3). That means you will always learn mental skills at a faster rate. I suspect the Art Society is the same way for creative skills. The Bot Savants have a similar reward but it wouldn't be as useful since it's only for the Robotics skill.
Thanks for the correction, for some reason I was only thinking of the at-uni activities and not the actual rewards... idk, this pack doesn't seem to stick in my brain for some reason!
I feel like this pack has a lot of bugs, like when I played my sim in uni for a semester, then went to another household, then came back a few days later, her GPA tanked and I think it's because the week still continued even when I play playing the other household and have autoage off for other sims. This was awful because she had a 4.0 and now is at a B+ and she lost her chance at honors. Has this happened to anyone else and is there any patches to fix it? the game was already saved from my other household so I couldn't even go back to the time before it was saved.
But aside from that lol, do you know what happens if you leave an organization and then join it again? Are you still at the same rank? My sim's accomplishments stopped counting towards the orgs, so I'm hoping this will help but don't want to lose her progress. Also, if you got so far in an org with one degree and go back for another, do you have to start over again or do you pick up where you left off?
Thanks for all the work you do! I check this site practically daily <3
The second part of my last comment, I just answered by trying it in the game lol. She left the orgs and rejoined and her progress towards the next level was reset but her task completion started counting towards the progress again and she picked up where she left off. Not sure what happens when you come back though and would still love some knowledge on the uni semester timer when playing another household besides the one currently enrolled. :)
