Trump's student loan caps may deter health care workers, worsening shortages

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The Trump administration's new federal student loan limits, set to take effect July 1, could significantly impact the health care industry. These caps restrict graduate student borrowing to $100,000 and professional degrees to $200,000, falling short of the median tuition costs for medical school. This change, coupled with the elimination of the Grad PLUS loan program, may force students into private loans, which many do not qualify for, potentially exacerbating existing health care worker shortages.
