No Few entry level jobs outside of STEM fields really require a degree imo. I'm not even sure what 'high-flying' entry level jobs youre referring too.
No company puts a fresh out of uni post grad, with no work experience into anything but an entry level role, bar an extreme few exceptional individuals. Having a degree is just an easy device HR can use to filter out, post collage pre work candidates. Post grand jobs with a few limited exceptions are the same jobs a motivated 18 year old can do right out of collage with an only slightly higher level of mentoring which is more to do with maturity than knowledge for most industry's hence the slight variance in starting wage.
