Legal Question in Education Law in California

I enrolled in a LVN-BSN bridge program 2 years ago. At the time, they were accredited in California. However, this past year, they are no longer accredited in California due to losing their contract in a California based university as well as having no clinical sites. I've tried since April to get out of the program, but with each representative that I speak with, they disregard my request to drop the program and continue to encourage me to "continue the program". Though they have no accreditation, they now have clinical sites that are located in Sacramento and Long Beach, but I reside in San Diego. I was assured when I first enrolled that San Diego sites would be plenty to do my clinical portions.

Is there any way I can get out of this? I would like to get my money back or if not, at least stop paying in which will not affect my credit score.

Please advise.. Thank you for your response.

You likely should be able to get all of your money back since by losing their accreditation, they have breached their contract with you. (Your enrollment was predicated upon them retaining their accreditation.) Let us know if you'd like us to act on your behalf.
