Early life and education of Donald Trump
After graduating from the academy, Trump attended Fordham University from 1964 to 1966, studying economics. His college enrollment—and later a medical exemption—allowed him to defer the Vietnam War draft. Early in his sophomore year, seeking a larger business network, Trump transferred to the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, an institution favored by his father. He did not participate in extracurricular activities after his freshman year. Trump graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in May 1968 with a Bachelor of Science in economics.
Donald John Trump was born on June 14, 1946,[2] at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center in Jamaica, Queens, New York City.[3] Named for his maternal and paternal uncles,[4] Trump was the fourth child[5] and second son[6] of Mary Anne MacLeod Trump and Frederick Christ Trump.[2][a] Mary Anne was a daughter of a rural fisherman-farmer[11] who emigrated to the United States from Stornoway, Scotland, when she was eighteen.[8] She worked as a domestic servant in the Carnegie household in New York, where she grew enamored of wealth and the trappings of royalty—an affinity to which Donald fell heir.[
Early schooling
When he was three, Trump began attending the Carousel Pre-School, a nursery startup in Jamaica Estates, where the director remembered him as "attractive, social, and outgoing".[26] At that age, he and his siblings each were earning US$200,000 a year through various Fred Trump tax-avoidance schemes, adjusted for inflation in 2018; he was a millionaire by eight.
Trump enrolled at Kew-Forest, a private school in Forest Hills, Queens, when he was five.
At Kew-Forest, Trump was disruptive and determined to cause mischief regardless of consequence.[32] He later contended that he gave his music teacher a black eye in second grade,.
Detentions at Kew-Forest became known as "Donny Trumps" for Trump's notorious behavior.
To discourage Trump from causing further mischief, his mother, a devout Christian, sent Trump to confirmation classes at First Presbyterian Church in Jamaica.[36] Trump's behavior remained consistent at Sunday school and home, where he occasionally rebuffed his father.
] Trump had a paper route and rounded up bottles for deposits. With Brant, he would take the New York City Subway to Manhattan to purchase gag gifts—such as smoke bombs, and later switchblades—to play a game that involved throwing knives at a target.
Military school
Near the end of Trump's seventh grade year, his father, Fred, discovered his cache of knives and learned of his adventures in Manhattan.[40] The revelations infuriated Fred, who decided to send Trump to New York Military Academy[
Prior to attending the academy, Trump went to Camp Hilltop, an expensive, Christian, carefully supervised outdoor camp in Hancock, as his brother, Freddy, had done years earlier—an experience that made him ornery and bored.[42] He arrived at NYMA in September 1959, and was advised by Theodore Dobias, a World War II veteran.[43] Dobias struck insubordinate cadets and conducted cage matches between disobedient students twice a week.[44] Trump was physically abused with slaps and blows.[45] Older cadets often used violence, or threats of violence, to assume authority.
In four out of the five years Trump attended NYMA, he made its honor roll, which required a grade average of eighty-five; in his sophomore year, he had a grade average of eighty. He was not in the highest ten percent of his class.
As a senior, Trump was appointed to lead a special drill team for the Columbus Day Parade on Fifth Avenue.[58] He became known for bringing beautiful women to the academy;[59] Trump's senior-year yearbook identified him as class "ladies' man".
He graduated from NYMA in May 1964[60] with a B average;[61] Trump's grades remained sealed after Michael Cohen, later his personal lawyer, told his high school, his colleges, and the College Board not to release his grades or SAT scores.[62] Trump had earned only a few ordinary medals, so he borrowed 12 medals from a friend for his senior-year portrait.
Fordham University
After graduating from NYMA, Trump considered attending the University of Southern California's film school to study film,[60][64] but chose to enroll at Fordham University, a private Jesuit research university in the Bronx, because it was nearer to his parents' home.
Trump's sister Maryanne privately said that she had helped get him into Fordham.[66] Trump commuted from Jamaica Estates to Fordham's campus. As a freshman, Trump's wealth and military background put him at a distance from other students, as did his abstinence from smoking and drinking.
He participated in Fordham's Reserve Officers' Training Corps program but withdrew his sophomore year as the Vietnam War escalated; cadets commit to being assigned as commissioned officers, assuring that they would be given a tour of duty in Vietnam. At universities, professors—wary of sending young men to war—often elevated their grades to ensure that they would pass.
University of Pennsylvania
During Trump's sophomore year, he told an NYMA alumnus that he intended to transfer to the Wharton School to "make better contacts for [his] future."[72] Later, his brother Freddy asked a high-school friend who worked at the University of Pennsylvania admissions office to help get Trump admitted.
Fred was insistent that his son graduate from an Ivy League institution, despite Trump's desires to forgo formal education.[73] Trump was not a member of any club, sports team, or fraternity at Penn, and he was not photographed for his senior-year yearbook.
Though Trump personally opposed the war, he did not participate in protests.[77] Trump graduated from the Wharton School in May 1968 with a Bachelor of Science degree in economics.
He visited a podiatrist who discovered that Trump had bone spurs in his heels—Trump could play sports but was disqualified from the military. The finding may have been supported by a second medical opinion.[80] Two months after his medical deferment,[79] in the Vietnam War draft lottery, which randomly ranked dates of birth for conscription, Trump's birthday happened to be drawn near the end of the list, receiving the high number 356 out of 366 and effectively sparing him from the mandatory draft.
