[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can kind of see nurses since it is a BS degree.  But physician assistant and nurse practioner degrees are professional degrees![/quote]
Nurse here.  The issue isn’t for a BSN, it’s for nurses pursing graduate school in order to become NPs, midwives, or CRNAs.  And unless you have a well off family, it’s going to be hard to shell out money for grad school.  This isn’t about going after college costs.  It’s about limiting who can pursue advanced degrees.

I am actually worried about the 200,000 cap on doctors.  Totally limiting who can pursue advanced degrees. why?[/quote]
PP here.  Agreed.  Most people cannot pay for an advanced degree without loans.  I really think they only want the wealthy to pursue higher education.  Yes college costs are absurd and AI might transform the work landscape. But the sudden shift to “why bother going to college” and now this—-I think they want people to be uneducated.  Not that they will stop sending their kids to college.  [/quote]

What's crazy is that they will open the floodgates to foreign doctors coming to the US to work once the hospital system CEOs start howling. All these doctors educated at a fraction of the price of US medical schools.

But surgeons will be a bunch of native born rich kids whose parents paid full freight for their med school tuition. [/quote]
