- Know how the youngest Trump is winning hearts at NYU and making waves both on campus and in politics. From Secret Service protection to a pivotal role in his father's 2024 campaign, Barron's unique college journey is anything but ordinary.
Barron Trump, the 18-year-old son of incoming US President Donald Trump and soon-to-be First Lady Melania Trump, has been reportedly making waves since starting his studies at New York University’s Stern School of Business in September.
Barron has become quite popular on campus, particularly among female students, according to a report by People. “He’s at Stern, so he’s studying business in some way,” a source told the outlet. “He’s a ladies’ man for sure. He’s really popular with the ladies.”
Barron’s tall and handsome appearance has caught the attention of many. The insider was quoted as adding, “He’s tall and handsome. A lot of people seem to think he’s pretty attractive — yes, even liberal people like him.”
His arrival on campus did not go unnoticed, as he was seen outside the library on his first day, accompanied by Secret Service agents, according to comments from three NYU security officers, the celebrity news website reported.
Barron enrolled at NYU shortly after graduating from Florida’s Oxbridge Academy in May.
