Barron Trump made his first appearance at one of his father’s campaign rallies in Florida last night, where his father confirmed that college was his next step.
“He’s now going to college, got into every college he wanted to,” Trump said during the rally. “He made his choice and he is a very good guy.”
But Trump didn’t disclose where Barron would attend college in the fall.
The 18-year old Barron Trump is the youngest son of former President and the 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and wife Melania Trump. He recently graduated from Oxbridge Academy on May 17, 2024 in West Palm Beach.
Much speculation has been drawn about where Barron will attend college as his father has alluded to his own alma-matter, University of Pennsylvania. Although there are ties to Georgetown University in Washington, D.C and interest around New York University. Here’s what we know.
Will Barron Trump attend UPenn or Georgetown?
Donald Trump himself studied and graduated at UPenn’s Wharton School of Finance and Commerce, graduating in May 1968 with a bachelor’s degree in economics.
Donald Trump Jr., the oldest of Trump’s children, followed in his father’s footsteps and also graduated UPenn’s Wharton School of Finance and Commerce in 2000 with a bachelor’s degree in economics.
Ivanka Trump, Trump’s oldest daughter also graduated from UPenn’s Wharton School of Business at UPenn in 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in economics, although she spent her first two years of college at McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C.
Tiffany Trump, Trump’s daughter also attended and graduated from UPenn in 2016 with a bachelor’s degree in sociology. In 2020 she graduated from Georgetown Law School.

Will Barron Trump attend NYU?
Speculation has surrounded New York University, Manhattan Campus, given it is not far from where Barron Trump lived and grew up during his childhood. He and his mother, Melania Trump moved to the White House shortly after his father won the election of 2016.
