Emma Watson has decided to further her education by enrolling in a part-time creative writing degree course at Oxford University, moving away from her magical days at Hogwarts. The 33-year-old actress, known for her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter series, most recently graced the screen in the film Little Women directed by Greta Gerwig. The course she is undertaking will require her to attend a few lectures in person, while the majority of her work can be completed online. A source disclosed to The Sun that the course caters to older adults and can be completed on a part-time basis, making it a perfect fit for Emma’s busy schedule. Only a few days per year will require her physical presence on campus, allowing her to complete the remaining coursework from the comfort of her own home.
Switching things up: Emma Watson, 33, has traded in her wand for a pen as she’s said to have signed up for a part-time creative writing degree at Oxford University. She was spotted on campus on Thursday.
Given her fame, this actress will have a security team accompanying her to classes as a precaution. The university staff were informed about this arrangement to ensure her safety. The college charges £20K for the two-year course, which includes two guided retreats and a research placement. MailOnline has reached out to Emma’s representatives for a statement. Emma has been making fabulous appearances at various shows during Milan Fashion Week. Emma, who has been spotted with bodyguards outside her hotel, was reportedly targeted by Drew Barrymore’s suspected stalker recently. During New York Fashion Week, Chad Michael Busto tried to access Emma’s dressing room and was subsequently arrested. Authorities stated that Chad entered a dressing room at the venue, causing disturbance to make-up artists and models nearby.
The news states that he shouted, “I want to marry Emma Watson! Let me talk to her and take a photo with her!” as per court documents. It was uncertain if Emma Watson was actually present during the incident. Chad was later released from jail as the prosecutor mentioned that the offense did not allow for bail to be set. This development occurred shortly after Chad was released by a Southampton judge following his arrest for fourth-degree stalking of actress Drew. The incident took place when he showed up at the actress’s Hamptons home on August 23, just two days after confronting her at a live event at the 92nd Street Y.
