Last week, former President Donald Trump excitedly announced that his son, Barron Trump, would be starting university in New York, breaking away from the family’s long-standing Ivy League tradition. Instead of following the path trodden by his siblings at the University of Pennsylvania, Barron has chosen an undisclosed institution in the Empire State.Trump hinted at a “very good” school but has yet to unveil the details, leaving many speculating about the mystery school. With the academic year well underway and freshman orientations in full swing, Barron remains elusive.
Campus sightings? Not yet
Despite the buzz, there have been no confirmed sightings of Barron or his family near any New York campuses. Neither Barron nor his mother, Melania Trump, has been seen at the city’s top universities, which include Columbia and Cornell. Recent social media posts claimed Barron was spotted at Cornell, but The Cornelia Daily Sun has debunked these claims, saying he does not appear in any student directories.
A shift from NYU?
According to reports from April, Barron’s top choice was New York University, conveniently located near Trump Tower. However, a change in plans seems likely. Trump has previously cited campus unrest related to the recent Hamas terror attacks on Israel as a factor influencing Barron’s decision. On Fox and Friends, Trump remarked, “You look at a college and see riots on campus, and you might reconsider. There are plenty of colleges that don’t riot.”
Trump’s praise and personal legacy
While Trump has been tight-lipped about Barron’s exact academic destination, he has been vocal about his son’s impressive academic profile. In June, Trump praised Barron’s achievements on Fox and Friends Weekend, highlighting his academic prowess and popularity among colleges. The Trump family’s educational paths have varied widely, with Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka, and Tiffany attending UPenn, Eric graduating from Georgetown, and Melania briefly attending the University of Ljubljana before her modeling career.
