Stern is among the top business schools in the country, accepting only around 5 percent of applicants. Its distinguished alumni include former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan and Home Depot co-founder Kenneth Langone.


Not all reactions were positive, though. One student made it clear that she would “absolutely not” want to be friends with Barron.
“It speaks to the privilege that a lot of the NYU kids have. I’m only here because of financial aid,” she explained.
Barron Trump recently became part of the NYU freshman class for the upcoming academic year. His enrollment at the prestigious university, particularly in the Stern School of Business, was confirmed by his father.
His college choice had been kept private until it was disclosed to DailyMail.com by his father, who mentioned Barron had many options available to him.
“It’s a very high-quality place. He liked it. He liked the school,” Trump said.
“We liked NYU. I’ve known NYU for a long time, but it’s one of the highest-rated…”
“I went to Wharton, and that was certainly one that we were considering.”
“We didn’t do that. We went for Stern. He’s a very high aptitude child, but he’s no longer a child. He’s just passed into something beyond child-dom. He’s doing great.”

Barron, who graduated in May from Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach, briefly considered following his father’s path to the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania but eventually decided on NYU.
“We liked NYU. It’s one of the highest-rated schools,” his father commented. “He’s a very high-aptitude young man. He’s no longer a child—he’s doing great.”
A soccer fan, Barron is said to be planning to continue playing the sport at NYU, having previously been part of DC United’s youth team.
The NYU campus, situated in Manhattan, is close to Trump Tower, where Barron spent a significant portion of his childhood before his father became president.
