Donald Trump’s youngest child, Barron, officially began college life yesterday.
The younger Trump was spotted arriving at New York University (NYU) Wednesday.
The New York Post reported that the 18-year-old was heavily flanked by Secret Service agents as he stepped onto the downtown Manhattan campus with a black Swiss Gear backpack casually slung over his shoulder.
Dressed in a white polo, black pants and Adidas Gazelle sneakers, Barron’s first stop was the dean’s office before heading off to classes, according to the report.
Here’s footage of Barron leaving Trump Tower with security:

According to the Post report, Barron is expected to live off-campus and commute daily from his father’s Trump Tower building on Fifth Avenue in Midtown.
The Daily Mail also reported that he will be studying at NYU’s Stern School of Business.
“It’s a very high-quality place. He liked it. He liked the school,” Trump told the outlet. “I went to Wharton, and that was certainly one that we were considering. We didn’t do that. We went for Stern.”
Barron’s arrival for the first day of class comes after his choice of schools was, until now, kept mostly under wraps.
Donald Trump The Post last month that his son would be attending a university in New York this fall but stopped short of revealing its name at the time of the interview.
Donald added that Barron — who is the only child he shares with wife Melania — had been accepted into multiple schools.
“He’s always been a very good student, he’s smart,” Trump said at the time.
Barron graduated from the elite Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Fla., in May.
