President Trump went to IVY League School, and graduated first in the Class.
Here it is, as reported by New York Times in 1976.
In 1973 and 1976, the New York Times reported that Trump graduated first in his class in 1968 from the Wharton School of Finance. He was always the Captain of his team, including the lead commander of his military training in school.
IN CONTRAST TO Mr. OBAMA's school official records were never presented.
That include his official birth certificate and his citizenship because he grow up in Indonesia when adopted by another Muslim father. Mr. Barack Obama spent some of his childhood years in Honolulu, where his mother completed college after his parents divorced.
Obama started a close relationship with his maternal grandparents. In 1965, at 4 years old, his mother remarried to Lolo Soetoro from Indonesia. Two years later, Dunham took Obama with her to Indonesia to reunite him with his stepfather. In 1971, after 4 years in Indonesia, Obama returned to Hawaii to attend Punahou School, from which he graduated in 1979.
By US constitution, Obama is not considered a Natural Born citizen. His father was a Kenyan, just visited the US to study, then impregnated his white mother.
No official school records were ever presented by Mr. Obama, when he considered running for president. Until now his school records are sealed. Millions have questioned his BC including Arizona Sherriff Joe Arpaio, until Sherriff was retaliated and convicted for political reasons, but now released. It was reported that Mr. Obama spent millions of dollars to hide all his records from the public.

Shortly after Donald Trump questioned President Barack Obama's legitimacy as a U.S. citizen, he challenged his academic record.
"I heard [Obama] was a terrible student, terrible. How does a bad student go to Columbia and then to Harvard?" Trump said in an April 2011 interview with The Associated Press. "I'm thinking about it, I'm certainly looking into it. Let him show his records."
During the February 2011 Conservative Political Action Conference, Trump said, "The people that went to school with him, they never saw him, they don't know who he is. It's crazy."
Pulitizer Prize-winning website Politifact rated Trump's statement as a "pants on fire" lie.
All queries and the Politifact report show Obama's time at those Ivy League schools was well documented and represented honestly.
Obama graduated from Columbia University in 1983 with a degree in political science and graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law School in 1991. He was also the first black president of the Harvard Law Review.
University of Pennsylvania records and documents uncovered by the school's student newspaper, The Daily Pennsylvanian, show it's President Trump's academic record that is now in question.
For decades, the national media has reported that Trump graduated "first in his class" at Wharton, often confusing his undergraduate degree with the Ivy League university's top-ranked MBA program.
In 1973 and 1976, the New York Times reported that Trump graduated first in his class in 1968 from the Wharton School of Finance.
During campaign stops in Pennsylvania, Trump frequently said he was "a very smart guy" and knew the state well because he went to Wharton.
When PennLive tried to delve into his academic record in the summer, a school spokesman said it's university policy to not release such information other than confirming graduation.
In Gwenda Blair's 2001 book, "The Trumps: Three Generations of Builders and a President," she said Trump transferred into Wharton from Fordham University with help from family connections. The president's older brother, Freddy Trump, knew an admissions counselor at Wharton, she said.
That book and some reports in the 1980s claimed Trump didn't graduate first in his class and didn't graduate with honors.
A 1968 commencement program shared Friday by the Daily Pennsylvanian backs that up. It shows that Trump graduated from the undergraduate school of finance and commerce, but he did not graduate at the top of his class or with honors.

The Daily Pennsylvanian also interviewed alumni from Trump's graduating class. Some remembered him as professional, focused and "different from the rest of his class."
Others suggested he was always more interested in real estate in New York than his time at Penn.
Is Donald Trump correct that President Barack Obama was not academically qualified for admission to an Ivy League school without affirmative action?
Trump is not correct. Obama had good grades through most of his academic career and his grades got better the further he went. It was Trump who needed affirmative action to get into college:
1. According to Electopedia, Obama was a B-student in high school and the worst grade he got was a D in French:

2. After high school, he went to Occidental College. Occidental College has no GPA requirement for acceptance and puts most of their emphasis on test scores and character issues, so there was no affirmative action was required for Obama to get acceptance there.

3. Obama had a 3.3 GPA at Occidental College and then transferred to Columbia. Columbia has a high acceptance rate for transfer students and he had no trouble gaining acceptance. No affirmative action required there.

4. At Columbia, Obama had a GPA of 3.7 and had no trouble being accepted into the Harvard Law School. No affirmative action was required to get into Harvard.

5. Obama graduated from Harvard magna cum laude from Harvard Law in 1991. He was the first African American to be elected editor of the Harvard Law Review.

6. The bottom line is that Trump's statement is provably false. There is no evidence he needed or used affirmative action to get into any college.
What’s funny is that there is evidence that Trump used a “rich person’s affirmative action” because Trump only got into Wharton with "family connections." He also graduated with no honors, while Obama graduated suma cum laude:
