Starting July 4, 2025, undergrads must earn more than high school grads, and grad students must out-earn bachelor’s holders. Majors like education, humanities, arts, and even some sciences are in the crosshairs—many can’t meet the benchmarks. States like Idaho face tough choices, cutting programs vital to their economies. Teacher shortages could worsen, and cultural fields may shrink as students can’t afford to pursue passions. The public comment period is closed, but you still have a voice—reach out to your reps before this law reshapes higher education forever.
