Barron Trump Missing From NYU Campus as Officials Confirm Surprise Transfer

According to an exclusive report, Barron Trump did not appear in Greenwich Village for the start of the fall semester at New York University. Surveillance footage and eyewitness accounts across NYU's main campus failed to produce any sign of the youngest son of President Donald Trump on the first day of classes.

NYU's sprawling global network includes degree-granting campuses in Abu Dhabi and Shanghai, as well as domestic outposts in downtown Brooklyn and Washington, D.C., in addition to numerous learning centers, including one in Los Angeles.

According to multiple campus security sources speaking to People, Barron could be studing in any of them, as the only son of the president and the first lady Melania Trump has quietly relocated his studies to a different NYU site. A campus security officer reportedly told the magazine that "he's doing a semester at another NYU campus," but declined to share which.

While Stern's International Business Exchange Program is technically an option, it's typically reserved for juniors and seniors, not sophomores like Barron. This abrupt absence caps a summer spent far from sunbathing: the 19-year-old reportedly divided his time between Trump family properties, wrestling with tech ventures, business planning, and grooming fledgling enterprise deals.

Numerous sources told People that "Barron has been actively working on his own financial interests and has spent time with others who he is involved with in that area," and has been spending a "great deal of time" with his family.

According to insiders, First Lady Melania Trump continues managing his well-being with purpose, keeping him close at Trump Tower in Manhattan, after moving there from West Palm Beach, Florida, last year. Campus housing, apparently, wasn't "in the stars" for Barron "at this point."

According to a "political source," the First Lady allegedly "watches Barron constantly in an effort to be sure nobody messes with him or bullies him, as this is a constant worry with her," and that "She always knows where he is and what he's doing."

Barron's decision coincides with rising public intrigue about his public persona. Recent profiles reveal that he remains private, even as he quietly garners influence. New York Magazine portrays him as a silent yet potent presence, standing at a staggering 6 feet 9 inches. He contributed to his father's second-term campaign strategy by advising on younger male audiences and influencer outreach.

He reportedly organized high-profile visits by Kick streamers Adin Ross and Félix "xQc" Lengyel to Mar-A-Lago and a podcast interview with the YouTube pranksters, the NELK Boys, all while maintaining privacy and avoiding spectacle.
