Trump reveals where son Barron will attend college in exclusive interview with The Post
HOWELL, Mich. — Barron Trump, the youngest member of the Trump family, will attend a university in New York this fall, former President Donald Trump told The Post.
“He’s all set in a certain school that’s very good,” the former president said in an exclusive interview before his campaign stop in Michigan.
The 45th president said the school is in the Empire State, but that his team would be making an announcement about the specific school “soon.”
Trump smiled when The Post asked him if it was NYU, but maintained that he would not reveal the school until the announcement is live.
“He’s always been a very good student, he’s smart,” he said.
Barron Trump, 18, graduated from high school in May. His father previously said he got into several schools and was making a decision.
Trump has said that his 6-foot-7 son takes an interest in politics and even sometimes advises him on what to do.
“He’s a little on the tall side. I will tell you, he’s a tall one, but he is a good-looking guy. And he’s really been a great student. And he does like politics. It’s sort of funny,” Trump told “Kayal and Company” on Philadelphia’s Talk Radio 1210 WPHT.
“He’ll tell me sometimes, ‘Dad, this is what you have to do,’” Trump said in May.
The former president attended Barron’s graduation at Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach alongside former first lady Melania Trump in May after he got permission to take a break from his “hush money” trial in Manhattan.
The teen was also present at a Trump Florida campaign rally, but did not attend his father’s presidential nomination at the Republican National Convention in July after Melania’s office said he had “prior commitments.”
Another member of the Trump family, Donald Trump Jr.’s daughter Kai, also recently announced her university decision, revealing she will be attending the University of Miami.
Kai, 17, spoke at the RNC and gave a glowing review of her grandfather on stage.
The former president graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1968 with a major in economics.
