Students pursuing graduate degrees in nursing, physical therapy and several other fields will be eligible for higher student loan limits — at least for now — after a federal judge blocked part of a Trump administration rule that held them to lower caps.
The U.S. Education Department issued a revised rule on Monday designed to follow the judge's order from last week, officials told The Associated Press. Agency officials called it a temporary change while they fight in court to keep the original rule, which defined medicine, law and other fields as “professional programs” but excluded nursing and others.
