Melania’s education has been a point of contention since 2016, especially after her speech was accused of being plagiarized from one of Michelle Obama’s speeches.
According to the statistics of the GOP convention, Melania had attended university in Slovenia where she had got a degree in architecture and design.
The website bio had read, “Born on April 26, 1970, in Slovenia, Melania Knauss began her modeling career at the age of sixteen. At the age of eighteen, she signed with a modeling agency in Milan. After obtaining a degree in design and architecture at University in Slovenia, Melania was jetting between photo shoots in Paris and Milan, finally settling in New York in 1996.”
However, right after the accusations started to make headlines, the website was wiped out and the visitors were rerouted to Donald Trump’s official website. At this time, Melania had shared on Twitter, “it does not accurately reflect my business and professional interests.”

Melania’s bio on the official Trump site changed to “paused her studies to advance her modeling career in Milan and Paris.” Moreover, NBC quoted one of her professor named Blaz Matija Vogelnik as saying, “She hasn’t finished university, at least not in Ljubljana,” and also added, “My personal opinion is that, because she was very beautiful girl… I believe that she realized that she could gain more with that, than to have long studies.”
