Adam and Linda Edwards did not have much money left over after purchasing their new home, so they had to be careful with their budget for a while. Consequently, when Luke left for college, they didn't give him any additional money. Luckily, he was able to complete five AP classes, so his scholarship money will cover the rest of his tuition. Alison grew up later in the week, deciding to do her degree from home instead of going to University. Unfortunately, she had only managed to complete one AP class during her teen years, so the family has had to shell out $1000 per class (she still has one more class to go, plus her thesis). Abigail became a teen with the LTW to be a Gamer, which will only require a community college degree. She was not able to do any AP classes, however, because her grades are not high enough. Linda did finally attain the promotion she was working on, but is short friends for the next one, so she hasn't quite topped Slacker yet. Adam brought home another big bonus of $20,000 though, so they're doing pretty well financially, despite all the expenses. At the end of winter, Adam is in his 70s and Linda is nearly 60, and the family has saved $30,761, so they will remain Lower Middle.
*Note: The reason I decided to keep Alison at home is that the first dorm at Uni is full to capacity, which would have meant her going alone into the second one, with no one else likely to join her, which would be boring. Also, since she was dating Joshua Baxter as a teen, and I plan to rekindle that relationship as soon as he grows up, it makes sense for her to take over the household, as Joshua will have to move out of his house when he ages up.
Happy Simming!
