Does the line in College/University "2x Int or Edu" mean roll twice for each year, or roll 2x my edu (7x2=14) to pass? The latter seems wrong, but I wanted to verify.

Roll twice for each year.

Thanks!
Education Table typo?
Good Morning, all...
I just checked the Beta draft on the Beta Update CD, the Pass/Fail (during the Beta) was 4x Int or Edu for both College and University and both awarded a Bachelor degree. This made sense because it is a four year term. Now it says 2x Int or Edu, but the duration remained 4 years.
Also, the first column (College in the final draft) had the heading College/University in the beta draft to denote that either could award the Bachelor. This second is a small thing, but would add clarity.
I believe these two things are errata.

Looking at the other schools on p.100, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be 4x, not 2x, thus one roll per year. Law school is thus also needing errata; I think it should be "3 years", not "2 years", because most law schools in the US are currently using three-year curricula. Others might choose to change to "2x Int or Edu", though.
I believe this is correct. The body text supports it.

On the plus, my test character is no longer a college dropout, but failed university.
If the rules get updated, will there be a way to download new version of the text? (Maybe that's a question for another thread?)

Seems like it could easily say "Pass/Fail Int or Edu" since it is clearly stated you roll Pass/Fail once per year.
We're waiting for Don to give us the go-sign to start providing errata. I hope to have the first 100 pages or so ready to go, at least from a grammar/spelling/punctuation (GSP) perspective.
No word on how the errata will be integrated. I suspect a collated text-file, accompanied by my fervent prayers for .PDF updates.

Yeah, PDF would be nice. No reason to not update it, just need to find a way to distribute it.

This. Remove the numbers from the Pass/Fail row in the tables on Education 1.
Don edited his old message, which doesn't change the date. There's a file attached now...very small print
