Barron Trump will attend NYU’s Stern School of Business, Donald Trump reveals

Barron Trump was spotted arriving for the start of classes at New York University on Wednesday after his father told DailyMail.com that he would be studying at the university’s Stern School of Business.

“He was accepted to many colleges,” said a proud Donald Trump.

“He’s a very smart guy and will be going to Stern Business School, a great school at NYU.”

Stern is one of the best business schools in America and offers an extremely selective bachelor’s program – only about one in 20 applicants is successful.

Barron, 18, is the youngest son of the former president and his wife Melania.

In May he graduated from the prestigious Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach.

Trump said his son considered following in his father’s footsteps at Pennsylvania University’s Wharton School, but ultimately chose NYU.

“It’s a very high-quality place. He liked it. He liked the school,” Trump told DailyMail.com.

“We liked NYU. I’ve known NYU for a long time, but it’s one of the highest rated…”

“I went to Wharton, and that was definitely one we considered. We didn’t do that.”

“We chose Stern.

“He’s a very gifted child, but he’s not a child anymore. He’s just moved beyond childhood into something. He’s doing great.”

And Trump said his son plans to continue playing soccer in college. He is known to be a fanatical fan of the sport and has played for one of DC United’s youth teams.

The NYU campus is not far from Trump Tower in Manhattan, where Barron spent much of his childhood before his father became president.

Stern’s bachelor’s program is extremely selective and only about one in 20 applicants meets the requirements.

Famous alumni include Alan Greenspan, former chairman of the Federal Reserve, and Kenneth Langone, founding member and financier of Home Depot.

Barron was the first boy to grow up in the White House since JFK Jr. in 1963. He experienced one scandal after another – shielded as best she could by an overprotective mother.

Trump later made the same comment to DailyMail.com, describing how Barron had become a crucial element of his campaign, helping him connect with Generation Z voters through influencers and podcasters.

“He knows so much about it,” Trump said last week during an interview at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida.

“You know, Adin Ross, I work with people I don’t know that well, from a different generation. He knows every single one of them. And we’ve had tremendous success.”

The livestream with Ross was filmed at Mar-a-Lago and had over 580,000 live viewers at its peak, making it the third most concurrently viewed stream on the Kick platform this year.

However, he also described how his family had to pay a high price for being in the public eye.
