I am at a US university that I spent alot of money to relocate to, aren't they in a contract with me to let me finish as long as I am preforming my side of the agreement?

I posted this question yesterday and got two responses that the school had no obligation to me.
I think if you are going to anwser you should at least know what you are talking about!
I just got off the phone with the accredation board that certifies my school and they said under federal law the school must let me finish the degree I started.

There's no contract to let you finish. They may have rules that say you can stay in as long as you fulfill basic requirements. However, like any other business, if they run out of money, they can close. The money you spent to relocate has nothing to do with them. The tuition you gave them would just make you a creditor like everyone else, standing around waiting to see if you'll get any money back while the place is closed.

Colleges are like any other business, if they no longer make money, they can close. you would probably get some kind of retribution if that were to happen, but you can't possibly expect them to keep a school open just because you are currently attending.
