A: Whether you can sue a college for not providing the education as promised during COVID lockdown depends on various factors, including the terms of the enrollment agreement and any modifications due to the pandemic. If the college did not fulfill its contractual obligations or misrepresented the quality of education, you may have grounds to explore legal action. Consultation with an attorney to review the specific circumstances and contractual agreements is advisable.
