Barron Trump Turns 19 and Embraces New Chapter at NYU
Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, celebrated his 19th birthday on March 20th. He is now attending New York University’s prestigious Stern Business School, marking the beginning of a new chapter in his life. Barron resides in Trump Tower, the same building where he grew up, as he navigates his university experience.
Though Barron has generally maintained a low public profile, he has played a role in helping his father connect with younger voters during the 2024 election. Advising Donald Trump on how to engage Gen Z, Barron offered insights on using digital platforms and collaborating with influencers. His tech-savviness earned praise from his father, who humorously noted that Barron is skilled at using a computer, joking that his son could “turn his laptop on,” a contrast to his own less-tech-savvy approach.
Barron has also found ways to connect with his peers through online gaming, becoming active on the Discord platform and enjoying games such as EA Sports FC 25. This interest in gaming has allowed him to stay engaged with classmates and broaden his social circles.
Described as polite, well-spoken, and intelligent, Barron has often been referred to as an “old soul,” with some suggesting that his worldview has been shaped by his mother, Melania Trump, and her European influence. While still focused on his education, Barron’s future career path remains uncertain, with speculation about potential interests in real estate or even politics. However, he is known for being grounded, thoughtful, and mature, which sets him apart from many of his peers.
