How to unlock the Higher Learning achievement in Cities: Skylines - Definitive Guide

Build three separate campuses with plenty of expansion area.

You need to have all buildings from each of the three types of campuses built at the same time. I had already built everything from one type and then deleted them all for a new campus and it didn’t pop until I rebuilt all of buildings from the first campus.

Update 1: Thanks to X30Trucase for a detailed addition!



Update 2: Thanks to PjTierney for a detailed addition!



This also helps you get the achievement for having a campus reach prestigious rating as well as the academic works by having three campuses researching each year.

Museums and varsity sports venues are not required for the achievement. Just generate all three sorts of campus in one city and level all up to prestigious. Then build all unlockable buildings at least once and add the three special institutes at the end of the row. When I built the last of these buildings, the achievement popped right after.
I‘d recommend going for all three prestigious campuses because they push up your city severely in many respects.

Great expansion!

Awesome add on brotha! Thanks for confirming this.

I had a bit of trouble initially getting the colleges to fill up to get to prestigious, but I built some metros around the residential leading to the campuses and it fixed the issue for me. I guess they didn’t wanna walk or bike that far haha.

Is it better to level up one University at a time (and turn it off once you have the buildings) or to go for all 3 at once? I’m trying the latter now with a 100k city and they’re struggling to get new people in in the second year.

[update]

Looks like focusing on a single Campus at a time is the way to go. It seems that unpainting the Campus area will allow you to keep the buildings on your map without them taking away students from Campus 2. That makes a solid strategy as follows:

> Paint your first Campus, and build it up over the 5 Academic Years.
> Once you have all the buildings, unpaint the area to "disable" the Campus.
> Paint a new Campus area in a different part of the city (ie: not covering any existing Campus buildings).
> Build up this new Campus and repeat the above process when it's time to create Campus 3.
