Judge blocks Trump plan that would limit graduate student loans in nursing and other fields

A federal judge blocked part of a Trump administration plan to limit federal student loans for graduate programs in nursing, physical therapy, public health, and other fields. The ruling paused new loan caps of $100,000 for 'graduate' programs and $200,000 for 'professional' degrees, which excluded nursing and related fields. The American Association of Nurse Practitioners and other groups argued the policy would force students to take private loans or abandon education.
