Melania shuts down ‘completely false’ claim about Barron
Barron Trump, the 18-year-old son of Donald and Melania Trump, has returned to New York City to attend the Stern School of Business at New York University. While Donald Trump mentioned that Barron had considered attending Wharton, his alma mater, the family ultimately chose NYU, praising its strong reputation.
Though Stern is highly competitive, Barron was accepted, and Donald described him as a “very high-aptitude” young man. Due to his unique background as the son of a former president, Barron’s college experience is far from typical. Melania Trump shared that he faces challenges most students don’t, such as constant Secret Service protection, making it hard for him to socialize freely.
Despite the limitations, Barron is trying to connect with peers through online gaming, reportedly inviting classmates to join him on Discord to play EA Sports FC 25. He’s also said to be popular among his peers, particularly with the girls.
Recently, rumors circulated online claiming Barron was rejected by top universities like Harvard, Columbia, and Stanford. However, Melania’s office shut these down, stating Barron never applied to Harvard and calling the rumors “completely false.”
While speculation continues, Barron seems to be carving his own path in the business world—whether it follows his father’s footsteps or not remains to be seen.
