Kendall Jenner has reached college age, so let the matriculation rumors commence! (Or continue, actually.)

A story currently making the rounds on Twitter has the 18-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star has been accepted and is planning to enroll at High Point University, a private liberal arts school in North Carolina.

But no part of that story is true, a source tells E! News.

The rumors apparently started when locals started tweeting about Kendall touring the campus, and that ultimately gave way to "she's going!" A similar social media frenzy occurred when there was a reported Kendall sighting at Texas Christian University a few months ago.

A High Point rep told us, "We do sometimes have high profile families that apply and visit. Because, of our privacy policy we can not confirm or deny."

Meanwhile, Kendall's modeling career has been steadily picking up steam over the last few years and she said last February that if all was going well in that arena, modeling would be her priority moving forward.

As for some current truths about Kendall...

She likes burgers, summer is her favorite season because she loves being at the beach or by the pool, and she thinks the weather is definitely the best part about living in L.A.—all fun facts she revealed earlier today during a Mobio Insider Q&A with fans.

With mom Kris Jenner and sisters Kim and Kourtney Kardashian away in Park City, Utah, Kendall rang in 2014 at home with sisters Kylie Jenner and Khloé Kardashian, brother Rob Kardashian, Khloé's BFF Malika Haqq and other pals. The teen then caught the Jan. 1 sunrise in Malibu, where dad Bruce Jenner lives.

"It's a new year! haaayyy!" she wrote on Instagram.

She got her ski time in though, heading to Mammoth Lakes, Calif. over the weekend for fun in the snow with Harry Styles and other friends.

A source told us that Kendall and the One Direction heartthrob are "just getting to know each other" at this point and "have been having fun."
