President-elect Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, was accepted into Harvard University shortly after his father donated $2.5 million to the Ivy League school in 1998, according to a report. Kushner is married to Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, and is a close confidante of Trump. An official at Kushner’s high school said there was “no way anybody in the administrative office of the school thought he would, on the merits, get into Harvard.
