What would stop graduates from declaring bankruptcy early in their careers to discharge their debt, before they use their education to build a lifetime of earnings and assets?

Bankruptcy is still inconvenient. But mostly, people would be less able to get loans and then colleges would get to pick between reducing prices or having only a few rich students.

Whats to stop people in their 20s now taking out tons of credit then declaring bankruptcy without the college?

Credit limits on the credit cards they can apply for. Good luck getting a limit higher than a few grand at 20 years old on your own.
