Deacon Phillippe Lives A Lavish Life

Education is super important, as we all know — but it's also very expensive. Getting to go to college is a privilege not available to everyone. Of course, some colleges, like New York University, otherwise known as NYU, are more prestigious than others. Deacon Phillippe was lucky enough to get a spot thanks to his hard work in high school, but his tuition isn't cheap. According to the NYU website, a single year can set students back around $80,000, which is a whole lot of money. Financial aid can help, but let's face it: Phillippe's parents probably foot the bill. 

Phillippe is currently studying music at the university, which has some pretty high-profile alumni. Philip Seymour Hoffman, Alec Baldwin, Kristen Bell, and even Lady Gaga all walked the hallowed halls of NYU and graduated with a degree, so Phillippe is certainly in good company. 

Though, as mentioned, Phillippe lives in a beautiful shared apartment these days, it wasn't always so. The singer got a taste of dorm life when he first enrolled at NYU, even sharing some (since deleted) snaps of his room on his Instagram page in early 2023. According to the Daily Mail, Phillippe's room looked fairly typical, with an unmade bed, neon art, a basketball shirt, and general clutter typical of a college dorm room. It's good to see he got the dorm experience, even if it didn't last!
