Barron Trump, who turned 18 on March 20, graduated from Oxbridge Academy near West Palm Beach, Florida, on May 17, 2024. As of Tuesday, July 9, it has not been announced where Barron Trump will attend college, and the former first couple has not said much.

Will Barron Trump attend University of Pennsylvania?

Donald Trump has said in the past that he believed his youngest son might follow in his footsteps by attending the University of Pennsylvania.

Donald Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2000. Like his father, Donald Trump Jr. has a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Finance.
