Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, has begun studying business at New York University’s Stern School, choosing a different academic path from his siblings, who attended Wharton. His father praised the decision, calling Stern “a very high-quality place” and noting Barron’s strong aptitude and independence.

Now 18, Barron has kept a remarkably low profile despite his family’s fame. Classmates describe him as polite and reserved, preferring simplicity—one viral TikTok noted his modest $88 black backpack as a sign of humility.

Reports suggest Barron completed his first year at NYU and may be continuing studies at one of the university’s global campuses. His privacy is closely guarded, but his focus on business reflects the family tradition. Quietly and confidently, Barron Trump appears to be forging a path of his own beyond the political spotlight.
