Despite ongoing trials, Donald Trump woke up a happy man on Tuesday. The day before, on Monday, he won the Iowa caucuses, getting more than 50% of the votes in the race to become the Republican Presidential candidate for the 2024 election. If he wins, Melania Trump will become First Lady again, but little points towards Barron Trump joining them at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Barron, 17, is finishing his last semester at Oxbridge Academy in Florida. Most reports suggest that he will enroll in college this upcoming fall. Though, nothing has been decided as yet.
The son of the former president is rarely seen in public, but when the Trump family shared their annual Christmas photo, Barron was there. As often before, people reacted to how tall the young man had become. But is there a secret as to why? According to Donald Trump, who spoke about his son earlier this week, a secret ingredient has helped him grow tall.
Barron Trump has begun his last year at Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Florida. Sadly, not long ago, a Chicago woman sent multiple death threats to Barron Trump’s schoolmaster between May and June. She has since been detained and charged.
Where will Barron Trump go to college?
As the New York Times reported, Melania and Donald are already looking at colleges in New York. Donald Trump later confirmed in an interview with author Megyn Kelly that he and Melania are “looking into” the possibility of Barron attending the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania as he spoke with author Megyn Kelly.
“He’s a good kid, he’s a good-looking kid. He’s a great student, very good student,” the former president said last year.
It might be a familiar school for those who know their Trump history. In fact, Donald and his children, Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump, and Tiffany Trump, have all graduated from the University of Pennsylvania.
Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump both graduated from the Wharton School. Tiffany Trump graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree, while Donald’s third son, Eric Trump, chose to go to Georgetown University instead.
“I went to the Wharton School of Finance, the toughest place to get into. I was a great student,” Donald Trump has previously said, per AP News.
While it surely will be an excellent step for Barron Trump, his father has a complicated relationship with the Wharton School. As most know, Donald’s surname is seen across all his buildings, including hotels and skyscrapers. At Wharton, however, no building bears his name.
AP reported that school officials don’t like talking about the former president, so much so that a former pro-Trump student group previously had to be shut down.
