[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, wouldn’t tuition insurance cover this kind of situation?[/quote] Sadly — when we signed our enrollment contract, it did not come with an option for tuition insurance. I actually called and researched to see if I could purchase tuition insurance on my own. No go. The companies only offer policies for a school as a whole, not to individual families. In case school admin is reading this — [b]The enrollment contract does not protect the school in this situation. You are only entitled to keep the full tuition if parents withdraw mid year or kid is expelled. NOT applicable here.[/b] [/quote] While you are correct, a closure this sudden indicates that they are out of money and probably are unable to make their payroll, rent, etc to be able to continue operation, so you should prepare yourself for there being no money to return, or at least not enough to return in full. [/quote] And the very last words in this post are exactly where we have questions. We know it’s unlikely we’re going to be made whole. But is there some possibility of a partial reimbursement — no answers yet from school. If the school stonewalls and doesn’t try to be responsive, some parents may choose to file litigation just to get discovery and get some answers and force a reckoning. The lack of clarity and chaos in this situation is just mind boggling, and may drive some parents to litigation for the principle of it. [/quote]
