Emma Watson was spotted hanging out with students at a university campus in Providence, Rhode Island, making new friends in the process.

Looking fabulous: The actress exudes elegance as she mingles with her newfound companions in her fresh abode at Brown University.

Emma opted for affordable style by trading her fancy red carpet attire for a simple white T-shirt and denim shorts. The Ivy League college will kick off classes on Wednesday following students’ arrival on Saturday and a few days of orientation and events.

Watson, the exemplary student, appeared cheerful and at ease as she embarked on her university journey. Prior to hitting the books, new students have the opportunity to participate in activities such as yoga, games night, a midnight organ concert, and a kickball game. In addition to the fun events, students will also engage in discussions on important topics like diversity, Sєxual ᴀssault, and Brown University’s historical ties to the transatlantic slave trade.

Watson expressed her hope of being recognized as “Emma Watson, the student from the UK” rather than just as an actress from the Harry Potter films. While Brown University’s director of communications, Mark Nickel, did not confirm Watson’s attendance, he emphasized the school’s commitment to ensuring safety and privacy for all students, including any potential young wizards.

Brown University, known for its prestigious reputation, has seen a variety of notable alumni, including former presidents, diplomats, royalty, and the offspring of celebrities. The university was ranked number 1 for having the happiest college students in America by the Princeton Review in 2010, and also received recognition as the most fashionable school in the Ivy League by Women’s Wear Daily.

Despite earning top grades in her A-levels, Watson plans to continue her involvement in the entertainment industry by returning to the studio during breaks to film the final two installments of the Harry Potter series.
