Barron Trump is headed to the business school at New York University (NYU), according to former President Trump.
"He'll be going to Stern Business School, which is a great school at NYU," the 45th president said in an interview with Daily Mail released Wednesday.
"It's a very high-quality place. He liked it. He liked the school. We like NYU. I've known NYU for a long time. But it's one of the highest-rated," Trump said of his youngest son's college choice.
Noting that he graduated from the University of Pennsylvania's business school, Trump said, "I went to Wharton and that's certainly one we were considering. We didn't do that. We went to Stern."
The 18-year-old Trump — who graduated from high school in May from the Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Fla. — was "accepted to a lot of colleges," the ex-commander in chief said, praising his son as a "very smart guy."
"He's a very high-aptitude child. But he's no longer a child, he just passed into something beyond childdom. He's doing great."
Barron Trump, with a backpack swung over his shoulder, was seen entering NYU Wednesday accompanied by a security detail.
Last month, the former president teased that his son with Melania Trump would attend college in New York, but he didn't reveal which university.
While Trump predicted that Barron will "do well" in college, he said November could pose new challenges for his son.
"We'll see what happens with the election because it's a complicating factor always," Trump said.
