“No drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes – that is US President Donald Trump’s “formula for good parenting,” shared on a New York Post podcast, Pod Force One . This supposedly extends to all his children, from the 47-year-old Donald Trump Jr. to 19-year-old Barron Trump, who is perhaps most susceptible to the three sins, given that he is now in university. The youngest of Donald Trump’s five children and the only child between Donald and Melania Trump, Barron was born in 2006 in Manhattan, New York City. He’s largely stayed away from social media, but is a somewhat familiar face during some of Donald’s presidential campaigns or events the older he gets. Most recently, he made a Forbes headline titled “ How Barron Trump May Have Earned US$40 Million From His Dad’s Crypto Venture .” So, no ordinary 19-year-old. But all 19-year-olds, especially the son of the most powerful man in the US, has to attend school somewhere, right? TL;DR? Here’s the summary: This article traces Barron Trump’s education from private schools to NYU Stern. Barron Trump is the youngest child of Donald and Melania Trump, born in 2006 in New York City. He attended multiple private schools (NYC, Maryland, Florida) before enrolling at NYU Stern School of Business. Barron shakes hands with his father, Donald, after Donald’s inauguration as the 47th president of the US on January 20, 2025. Where did Barron Trump study? Barron’s schooling started at Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School in Manhattan, one of the oldest independent schools in the US. It costs US$64,740 to send your child to pre-kindergarten here for the 2025-2026 academic year, and tuition for Grade 12 costs US$68,360. When Donald won the 2016 US presidential elections, Barron was moved to St. Andrew’s Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland. There, pre-kindergarten costs US$42,735 for the 2026-2027 academic year, and Grades 9 to 12 cost US$57,920. “It is known for its diverse community and commitment to academic excellence,” said Melania in a statement . She added that the school’s mission, “to know and inspire each child in an inclusive community dedicated to exceptional teaching, learning, and service,” appealed to the Trumps and that they “look forward to the coming school years at St. Andrew’s.” After Donald lost the 2020 US presidential elections, Barron attended Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Florida. The school reports that over 50% of its graduates attend a top 100 US university. Tuition at Oxbridge costs US$45,600 annually in the 2026-2027 academic year for the upper grades, for which Barron was enrolled. There is also an annual student fee of US$2,500, which covers health and wellness services, transportation, security, and Oxbridge-licensed software for student laptops. And speaking of laptops, according to the school’s website, all students new to Oxbridge are required to get their own Apple laptop that must meet all the requirements: 13″ MacBook Air or Pro (M4 or newer models), 16GB Memory, 512GB Storage, and AppleCare+ is strongly recommended. Barron’s decision to choose NYU is more wholesome than you think. Why Barron Trump chose NYU over Georgetown and Penn As of May 2026, Barron is a student at New York University’s Stern School of Business – a noticeably different route from that of his brothers and sisters, who either attended Georgetown University or the University of Pennsylvania, where Donald himself graduated from . “[Barron] just wanted to be [at NYU],” Donald shared in the Pod Force One podcast. “He wanted to be there because his grandmother was gonna stay and wait for him in an apartment near the school. And she passed away.” Melania’s mother, Amalija Knavs, died in February of 2024, and Barron, who was said to have grown up closely with his maternal grandparents, spoke in fluent Slovene to them . Still, despite his grandmother’s passing, Barron remains at NYU and is set to graduate with the Class of 2028, where tuition is approximately US$99,000 per year. And if you’re wondering what being in class with him is like, Barron’s fellow classmates don’t have much to say because there’s nothing to share. “He’s sort of like an oddity on campus,” says Kaya Walker, the former president of NYU College Republicans, in an article with Vanity Fair , “He goes to class, he goes home.” At a glance: Barron Trump’s education path School Location Stage Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School Manhattan, New York Early education St. Andrew’s Episcopal School Potomac, Maryland Middle and high school years Oxbridge Academy West Palm Beach, Florida High school New York University Stern School of Business New York City Tertiary studies Disclaimer: This article was last updated on May 18, 2026.
