QUESTION
Can a college be sued for wrongful failure or breach of contract from a student

More details to this question:
My son enrolled in YCP BSN (Nursing) in 2013. While he has been in this program, they continually change the requirements for passing and graduation. They now require a comprehensive exam be taken at the end of their program(just added this requirement last fall). He has passed all the classroom /course requirements but now they have attached passing the Kaplan exam with a 95% rate for NCLEX to a clinical course . No where on the website for BSN graduation requirements is this posted, yet 1/3 of his class has their diplomas being withheld until they come back in June to retake this exam. If they do not get the benchmark grade, the school is going to fail them in that clinical course(80 hours in the hospital and course work). If my son does not get the benchmark, and they fail him, is their anything we can do legally?

I'm not expert on this matter but it occurs to me that there's no real claim here unless or until your son fails to pass the test. I hope he does well and this issue is moot for you both.
