Well, it's no new thing that as people become more educated, they become less religious, so they might be trying to scare people away from higher education (which might lead to them leaving the faith) by creating the boogeyman of "you won't be prepared for the real world!". However, according to them the only 'real world' is the world within their bizarre religious doctrines, so obviously anything besides their version of education isn't going to prepare people for their 'real world'.
TL;DR: yes, in general religiosity does down as education increases. I actually just read an article by a catholic "family values" group which gave the top 8 reasons not to let your daughter go to college.
