Tiffany Trump is counting down the days until her college graduation while her father Donald is preparing to fight his way to the White House after his Indiana primary win virtually assured his spot as the GOP presidential nominee.
The 22-year-old senior at the University of Pennsylvania took to Instagram on Tuesday night to share a picture of herself cuddled up to her 21-year-old boyfriend Ross Mechanic at an apartment near the school's Philadelphia campus.
'Let the countdown begin! #graduation,' she captioned the photo, which sees her modeling a patterned dress and fringed jacket while posed next to her beau.

Big win: While Tiffany was in Philadelphia, her father Donald was in New York giving his victory speech after winning the Indiana primary that night

Meanwhile, Ross looks dapper in a suit and tie as he smiles happily next to his girlfriend despite her nearing departure from their college campus.
According to his LinkedIn profile, the computer science major isn't graduating from the university until 2017, which means the two may be looking at a long-distance relationship in their near future.
While Tiffany was in Philadelphia paying tribute to the end of her college career, her family was in New York City celebrating Donald's victory in the Indiana primary.
As Donald's opponent Ted Cruz dropped out of the presidential race following his humiliating defeat that night, Tiffany's sister Ivanka and her sisters-in-law Vanessa and Lara gleefully watched the TV as the Texas Senator suspended his campaign.
Making it work? The 22-year-old has been dating Ross, 21, since 2015, but they may be looking at a long-distance relationship in their near future as he still has one more year of school
'Glued to the TV!' Tiffany's brother Eric tweeted this photo of his wife Lara (front), his sister Ivanka (center), and his sister-in-law Vanessa (back) watching Donald's opponent Ted Cruz dropping out of the presidential race
Lara's husband Eric tweeted a photo of the three ladies, writing: 'Glued to the TV!'
Meanwhile, Donald Jr. took to Instagram to share a photo of Ivanka and Lara with his wife Vanessa, which he captioned: 'The Trump ladies watching the results come in and some interesting news. @ivankatrump @laraleatrump and Vanessa Trump. #MakeAmericaGreatAgain #Trump2016 History in the making family time.'
And while it was certainly a family affair, Tiffany, Donald's only child with his second wife Marla Maples, was missing.
Tiffany, who has frequently appeared at her father's side throughout much of his campaign, was most likely unable to join her family at Trump Tower in New York on Tuesday night because she is in the midst of final exams.
However, Tiffany trumped at least two of her siblings when she voted for her father last week in Pennsylvania's primary election.

Ivanka and Eric were unable to vote in New York's Republican primary last month because they failed to register as Republicans six months before the election.
Although it is unclear what the future holds for the blonde beauty, her mother Marla revealed last month that Tiffany 'had her first job interview' in New York on April 5.
'My first instinct was [to tell her], "I feel so bad I can't be there with you,"' she told FOX411 before adding: 'I don't think I would be able to be there with her anyway.
'She's probably glad I'm not there, [because I would say], "Can I just walk you there? Did you eat before? We've gotta make sure you get food first."'
Although Marla wouldn't reveal the job her daughter is pursuing, Tiffany is double majoring in sociology and urban studies.
Escaping the cold: Two weeks before they headed to Mar-a-Lago, they enjoyed a relaxing spring break vacation at The Cove Eleuthera Resort in the Bahamas
Political views: When he first started dating Tiffany, Ross was a registered, active Democrat whose Facebook 'likes' included Hillary Clinton. Ross shared this throwback photo of himself with his lady love last week
Getting serious: Ross met Tiffany's mother Marla Maples (left) in January. Tiffany's beau presumably took this picture during their trip to the One World Observatory in New York
And it has certainly been a busy couple of months for Tiffany. In addition to her class schedule and traveling across the country for her father's campaign, the college senior has made sure to spend a lot of quality time with Ross.
In March, the two headed to the Trump family Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, just two weeks after they enjoyed a relaxing spring break vacation at The Cove Eleuthera Resort in the Bahamas.
Tiffany and Ross were first spotted together in late 2015, and in January he met her mother Marla in New York after their New Year's trip to Florida, where he was presumably introduced to Donald.
At the start of their relationship, Ross was a registered, active Democrat whose Facebook 'likes' included Hillary Clinton, NARAL Pro-Choice NYC, and the Penn Green Campus Partnership for environmental sustainability and policy development.
His parents are also registered Democrats, while his dad is a powerhouse of the New York real estate world—just like Tiffany's.
