A furious Melania Trump is denying the 'completely false' rumor that her son Barron was rejected from Harvard University.
The viral internet rumor about the 19-year-old resurfaced on Tuesday after President Donald Trump launched another broadside against the Ivy League university, cutting the federal government's remaining contracts, which are worth about $100 million.
The first lady's office denied Barron ever applied to Harvard, let alone got turned down from attending.
'Barron did not apply to Harvard, and any assertion that he, or that anyone on his behalf, applied is completely false,' her communications director Nicholas Clemens said in a statement.
Harvard has a notoriously high reject rate with about 96% of applicants being told no.
