Scholarship
From The Sims Wiki, a database for The Sims series that anyone can edit
With The Sims 2: University, players are enabled to send Teen Sims to College, where they continue their lives as Young Adults. In order to have a Sim from a family to go to college, they must be in the teenager life stage. Once there, they may go to college any time they wish by using a telephone. Before that, the Sim should apply for scholarships, also via a phone. Scholarships are handed out based on different criteria, such as good grades or a high Body skill. Working on any job skill will help in college and the workforce anyway, so don't let your teens get complacent. If your Sim is particularly talented in one or more skills or has some extraordinary attribute he or she can get a scholarship, which means an exact amount of Simoleons. All teenagers start with 500 simoleons when going to college and scholarships increase that amount. However, graduated Sims cannot retain the Simoleons they have earned during their college years, except by converting it to items in their inventory.

[edit] Hard scholarships
There are some scholarships which are hard to get like the Billiard Prize and the Footwork Award.
But you can get the Footwork Award by standing in front of the stereo and dancing until you get the "Bust A Move" option. If you choose this option you will get the award.
However, the Billiard Prize is not that easy. You will have to continue playing the pool many times before you get the award.
