There is a substantial impact from the Coronavirus on college tuition and student finances

“Long before the coronavirus pandemic, college costs had already entered unprecedented territory. According to a study by BrokeScholar, the average cost of tuition and fees — in inflation-adjusted dollars — at both private and public schools has more than tripled from the academic year 1971-72 to 2019-2020.” DePietro, A. (2020, June 02)*

  • “In 1971-72, average tuition and fees at a private nonprofit four-year institution cost $11,540 in 2019 dollars. For the 2019-20 academic year, the current average cost is $36,880 for tuition and fees: an increase of 220%.” DePietro, A. (2020, June 02)
  • “In 1971-72, average tuition and fees at a public four-year institution cost $2,710 in 2019 dollars. For the 2019-20 academic year, the current average cost is $7,730: an increase of 285%, which means it nearly quadrupled.” DePietro, A. (2020, June 02)

Students that attended a college/university for the Spring 2020 semester may be able to make a claim for a partial tuition or fee refund for the unforeseen and insufficient quality of education that they received.

Was the “Zoom University” justifiably fair for college students expecting a college experience?

  • Amidst the coronavirus pandemic, students argue that remote learning has inadequate value when compared to in-person education.
  • Students should not be accountable to pay for certain fees from the Spring 2020 semester such as: (Room and board fees, educational services, campus facilities, and student activities, etc.)

Universities are being accused of breach of contract, conversion, and unjust enrichment.

We understand that it was an appropriate action to take for the colleges/universities to close down due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, the students that attended the Spring 2020 semester should be able to claim a partial tuition refund or reimbursement.
