ABSTRACT:
A game simulates attending college. Apparatus of the game includes a game board upon which two separate paths of play are defined. One path of play is a college path which represents various academic and financial occurrences which befall the student-player. The other path defines a financial path which represents various financial occurrences which befall the player while working and not attending college. Each path is defined into intervals which designate various rewards or credits or detriments. Play begins on the financial path with the objective being to collect sufficient funds to attend college. Play continues on the college path once sufficient funds have been obtained. While playing on the college path, college credits or detriments are collected and are attributed to college classes or events attempted during each round of play on the college path. A performance determination in the form of a grade point average is derived by play on the college path. If the expenses of attending college exceed the funds collected by any player, play must be transferred back to the financial path. Play remains on the financial path until sufficient funds are collected to once again return to the college path.
