Auto Education – Guardian and University Manager
This mod helps manage children's education in Crusader Kings III. It reduces the manual work required to assign guardians, choose educational directions and send children to college. The normal CK3 education system remains intact, but is easier to manage. Children will not receive free rewards, good results are not guaranteed, and normal in-game restrictions still apply.
Module functions
Guardians are sought based on the child's educational focus, childhood traits, skills, and the candidate's educational background.
Consider availability of character, relationships, culture, beliefs, and the selected candidate pool.
Filter out mentors who are clearly unsuitable, such as competitors, seriously ill or dying characters.
Allows guardians to assign processing automatically, or through multi-candidate activity processing.
You can automatically select educational priorities based on your child's childhood traits and your ranked educational priorities.
Allow individual children to be excluded from automatic education and later returned.
Support university education.
If a child's former guardian dies, he will look for a new mentor.
age limit
Guardian selection begins at the age of 4, when the child already has childhood characteristics.
College examinations start at the age of 12.
background settings
Settings open through decisions. Checking does not start until the settings panel is opened for the first time. In the settings, you can choose how guardians are assigned, the choice of educational focus, which children are included, who can be considered as guardian candidates, whether to use culture and faith filters, how university education is handled, and whether to show notifications.
Education Priority Order
Prioritization influences automated educational focus selection. You can reorder all five education paths:
diplomatic
Martial
manage
conspiracy
study
When focus automation is enabled, the mod examines the child's childhood traits and selects the most appropriate highest level educational focus. If priority cannot be applied, normal balancing fallback is used. The default order follows the standard CK3 skill order: diplomacy, force, management, conspiracy, and learning.
Exclusion factors
If you prefer to handle a child manually, you can exclude it from automatic education through the character interaction menu. Excluded children are skipped when selecting guardians, choosing educational focus, and college education. They can be returned later via the same character interaction menu, or all at once from the exclusion page.
scope
Children can be restricted to the court, one's own children, descendants, close relatives, extended family, clan, or an entire dynasty. Candidates for guardianship may be limited to the court, court and vassals, relatives, families, or the entire dynasty.
Comment
This mod only works for players.
The results of automatic assignments are displayed via small notifications.
All checks can be disabled in settings.

compatibility
This mod does not replace the basic education system, and should be compatible with most mods that do not drastically redo education, guardianship, or universities.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
