Create a new blank lot and '''make sure it is a residential lot'''. Then build your 'dorms' - make sure you include the dorm doors and the right stove/oven and all of the necessities. When you are done, open up the cheat console (by holding down the CTRL, SHIFT, C keys) and type it this cheat (and it is case-sensitive):
