Students are suing their universities for not refunding more money when they shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic. They claim these schools aren't keeping up their end of the bargain — but some law experts think these cases are a 'long shot.'

:"The faculty, staff and leaders of Pace continue to work tirelessly to support our students during this challenging time." Boster pointed out that not only have educators continued to teach students all their regular courses, but the university is offering tutoring, counseling and other services as well. So, the school argues, tuition dollars are not really going to waste.

Some universities named in the cases already offer classes online for a lower tuition than they charge in-person students on campus, Willey pointed out. Willey counters that most of the students' agreements don't actually include a force majeure clause. And in any case, he adds, these suits are not for outright breach of contract."The students here are very fair, very reasonable. And they're just asking for the difference between what they pay for and what they receive to come back to them."
