Per Curiam.
AFFIRMED. See Univ. of Fla. Bd. of Trs. v. Rojas, 351 So.3d 1167, 1169-72 (Fla. 1st DCA 2022) (holding that sovereign immunity barred the breach of contract claim, which was based on the University's failure to offer on-campus services or to refund related fees for semesters while its on-campus facilities were closed due to COVID-19, because the documents attached to the complaint did not constitute an express written contract where they did not contain any language obligating the University to provide specific, on-campus services during any specific time or to refund fees when any such services were paused, limited, or cancelled).
