Senate bill proposes overhauling student loan system, limiting repayment options and capping borrowing.
A proposed Senate bill aims to overhaul the US student loan system by reducing repayment options to two plans, capping borrowing amounts, and altering deferment processes.
Graduate and professional students would face annual and lifetime borrowing limits, and popular repayment plans like Pay as You Earn and Income-Contingent Repayment would be phased out.
Existing borrowers can continue using a modified Income-Based Repayment plan, while new borrowers would have fewer options.
These changes, set to take effect from July 1, 2026, could lead graduate students to seek private loans, which offer fewer protections.
