“ The endowment tax is just one of several provisions in the nearly 940-page bill with implications for Harvard. The legislation eliminates the federal Grad PLUS loan program and caps Parent PLUS loans at $65,000 per student — changes that could reduce access to graduate education and limit borrowing options for low-income families. It also consolidates student loan repayment plans and eliminates key borrower protections, including deferment for economic hardship and unemployment.

The bill also ties access to federal student aid to graduates’ earnings. Under the new accountability framework, programs whose graduates earn less than the median income of a high school graduate risk losing federal loan eligibility.

Those provisions are scheduled to take effect beginning July 1, 2026.”

they should be taxed at the same ordinary income and LTCG rates as everyone else. 8% is weak.

Going after student loans and the higher education industry is the most 180 part about it. Lower borrowing caps. It even eliminates unemployment and hardship forbearance for borrowers in the future. Tons of schools will be totally fucked

The caps seem high enough that most people can still afford it. Probably just drives the market to private loans for the extra $10k a year

Will private lenders offer 10k/year loans for junk degrees though?

The deferment for economic hardship never made any sense in a world with IBR. You already pay $0 if you lose your job. (Now you pay $10 per month.) You were actually just fucking yourself over by going on deferment because you weren’t getting credit for forgiveness.
