Cordero v. MT State Uni.

Summary

The Court held that the university and student formed an express contract, but the contract did not contain a specific promise requiring continuous in-person instruction or guaranteeing a refund when instruction moved online during an emergency. The university did not breach its contractual obligations concerning tuition or mandatory fees because classes continued and campus services and facilities remained available, maintained, or operational. The Court affirmed dismissal of the implied-contract and unjust-enrichment claims because the express contract governed the parties' relationship, although it relied on grounds different from those used by the District Court.
