Judge Blocks Trump’s Student Loan Cap
Description
A federal judge has blocked a Trump-era plan to cap federal student loans for advanced degrees, specifically targeting the administration’s new definition of “professional degrees” that required graduates to work without supervision — a move deemed unconstitutional by the court. While loan caps remain in place, the ruling deals a major blow to the Education Department’s authority and could reshape access to education for future nurses, therapists, and other critical professionals, especially in underserved areas. The Department is reviewing the decision, and another lawsuit challenges the caps altogether — meaning the battle over student debt limits is far from over.
