For a long time now, rumors have been swirling concerning where actress Emma Watson will attend school in the United States. She has finally confirmed which school in a new interview with Paste Magazine:
Paste: You are off to University in the autumn.
Watson: I am—to Brown, which is an Ivy League establishment in the U.S.A. I’ve got a place there to read literature.
Paste: Was that a deliberate career choice?
Watson: Oh yes, very definitely. I hope to do quite well with my A Levels [she’s being modest—she achieved straight A’s in her chosen subjects, English literature, geography and art, as well as seven A’s and three A* at GCSE level] and they’ve provisionally accepted me, so I’m off to study.

Congratulations, Emma! Youre going to love it; my sister just graduated from Brown and it is such an awesome school. I went to school in Providence, RI, as well, and its such a nice city.

Brown must be happy. Shes likely going to influence tons of fans to choose Brown now, in hopes of meeting her. Though I question the difficulty of the GCSEs and the A levels, because I saw an article discussing the types of math questions they ask and its all embarrassingly easy. A friend of mine from England agreed that the exams were far too easy. Thats not to say I dont think Emmas intelligent! I can tell shes very bright. :)

How can someone be so beautiful, talented and intelligent? Makes me wonder what Ive been doing my whole life. Jealousy is a dark, dark force.

apparently it is a fake article, as she took part in a video interview after this article came out which denied having said anything and she still did not say what uni she would be attending. She said the first place to hear what uni she had chosen would be on Emma Watson Official..
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 03:37:29
ew brown, lol. i nearly applied there but was severely turned off by it in the end. Harvards got its issues too but it would have been nice to see her go there...but hey, if she likes brown, more power to her, eh?
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 03:57:36
i dont believe it, i think its a fake article, she wouldnt speak so openely about where she was going in this interview, and then keep it a complete secret in all the others, in the full article it says at one point im looking forward to working with them (talking about burberry) would she not say working with them more? or i enjoyed working with them? she said the first place shell declare it is on EWO and i believe that, she may be going to brown , but i dont believe this article is real, some answers are almost word for word from other interviews,

Shes so like Hermione! haha. Congrats Emma!:D :D

I think Emmas going to Brown too. Dan Radcliffe spilled the beans in an interview a couple weeks ago. IMO, this article is fake. Most of the quotes from Emma were lifted from old interviews or just made up.
But wherever she decides to go, CONGRATULATIONS Emma!

Wow, yea... thats definitely a fake article, it doesnt sound like the way Emma would usually respond to any of the questions in fact. I hate that they keep doing this to her, cause then HP fans get mad at her and call her a liar later... when really its the medias fault :(
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 10:29:34
Congratulations Emma! not only is she talented, and beautiful but smart too. Good on you girl!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 10:30:36
Fake, and hpfreak238, even if she did go to college, she would be amazing. (:
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 10:43:54
for the average 16 year old, GCSEs are hard, and for the average 18 year old, A Levels are hard. But Emmas obviously above average, so they werent that hard for her, which is why she did so well. The average for GCSEs is probably Cs.
Emma really has it all haha. I wish shed attend a uni in England though, maybe Oxford or Cambridge :)
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 10:46:25
that is great!!!! I was hopeing she would go to Colombia, liek the rumors were saying. Only because I have a better chance in getting into Colombia than Brown ;) haha. But anyways if Emmas going to Brown thats incredible. Good Luck Emma.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 10:46:39
Yay!!! My brother goes to Brown, and he told me that everyone on campus knew she was going there for a while now- she just hadnt confirmed it to the public so they couldnt say anything. But it should be great for her to spend some time in college away from the paparazzi once the films are over.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 11:36:47
How in the world is she going to ever go to be able to learn? She will never be left alone. I think maybe a fake because why would she post it in advance? That will just make it harder to learn if people are only there to see her. Crazy. I wish her luck in where ever she decides to go.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 12:17:56
I read that she wants to have a roommate that isnt a HP fan. I dont even understand how she can live on campus. I feel like she wont be able to trust anyone. Everyone is going to want to be friends with her because shes famous. :/
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 12:29:44
Emma is my ultimate hero and role model!!!!!! She is truley amazing!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 12:53:57
Well, if that is true, congrats to her! I think its great that she will be going to college. I hope that after a while people will just treat her like a normal student and not someone famous.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 13:08:33
Come on Mugglenet, take this news piece down... so obviosuly a fake article. Last things she needs is the #1 HP fansite spreading such bilge.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 13:44:46
That is great (: as where i am headed as well actually!
if this artical is real, i hope to meet Ms.Emma Watson!!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 14:27:49
THIS IS A FALSE CLAIM. Emma Watson said that the first place she would announce her choice is on her website, and there has been absolutely no post on her website yet.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 15:51:33
To all the people who think its false, Paste is a legitimate entertainment (but mostly music) magazine. I dont think theyd make stuff up. Theyre a good magazine, actually.
Plus, Dan let it slip earlier.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 16:27:34
oooh now i want to go to brown for school :):)
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 16:29:55
1) This says "I hope to do well on my A-levels" and Emma took her A-levels a couple years ago.
2) Emma has been clearly saying "no" when interviewers for the HBP press tour asked her to tell them where she is going to college.
3) Emma does not want fans and paparazzi following her around while she is attending college. I CANNOT BELIEVE Mugglenet posted this. Read some of the comments... people are talking about looking for her and trying to get into the college that she attends.

FOR ALL THE PEOPLE WHO THINK THIS IS FAKE DAVID HEYMAN ALSO CONFIRMED THAT SHES GOING TO BROWN. Just because its not on her website yet doesnt mean its not true.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 20:23:04
@Kaylie: Maybe this is an old interview that she gave before she decided to keep her school choice quiet or maybe she has changed her mind since then. But Daniel Radcliffe and David Heyman both HAVE said that shes going to Brown. So even if this article is fake that seems like the likely choice. But it is weird that it sounds like she doesnt know what she got on her A-Levels....hmmmm....
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 20:42:22
First, good for her if she is thinking more about her career and her future. There are many actors ans actresses that see our career after everything goes out. Second this is part of growing up young people (College) need to have so they can made their minds. Third, good for her because she is doing something more in her life.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-21 21:36:09
now that you all mention it, the article does seem fake. but dan confirmed it himself and my sister who went to brown is convinced that shes going there. but i guess well just have to wait and see...

Someone from my family has been at Brown University since it first started as Moses Brown. It is in the top three in Literature. The other two are in England. Safety, very walled off from people just wondering around like most Universitys. At night it becomes a fortress. The area around it is in the city of Providence and it stinks. In spight of that said, great luck and she will learn and have a lot of fun living a different life. Great thinking Miss. Watson.

Theres going to be an awful lot of young men hanging around Brown come fall! I wonder if theyll need to increase campus security? Theres a lot of loonies out there.

In Korea they all blindly believe she is going to go to Ivy League, so where on earth is she going to? Yale, Brown, Columbia or Harvard?? I have no idea and further doubt if it may be some kind of Image-Making for selling the movie. It makes me afraid of her to go to a NEXT university.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-22 08:29:56
ive just notice dit got her GSCE results COMPLETELY wrong, it said she got 7 As and three A*s thats not true, she got 8 A*s and 2 As , and emma did sound as thoguh she hadnt got her Alevel results yet, she may be going to brown, but no one but its just not public knowledge yet! even if by chance she is goign to brown that dosent make this article any less shoddy and fake!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-22 10:26:20
Brown wasnt actually her first choice. She got rejected from Cambridge (UK) - I know this cause she applied to my sisters college there. Whilst her results appear to be outstanding, any from the uk will know that the vast majority of those that actually work will get these kinda grades. Plus shes obviously had some ridiculously expensive education with like the best schools/tutors that the uk has to offer.
And after all that she cant even frickin act! Perhaps better in HBP but Ill never forgive her for the worse ever acting performance Ive ever seen ever in OOTP...
And just as an example, at my school (a state school as in you dont pay a dime for it) around 10% of the 180 people in 6th form will get straight As. In my maths class most of the people are taking 6 A levels and will get AAAAAA, so dont be wowed by this pathetic attempt at percieved academia...
Rant over!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-22 14:42:06
So if its fake, I wonder if that means shes not really going to Brown. It sounded like that was where she was going in one of the interviews a few weeks ago, anyway.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-07-22 15:40:58
Look, regardless of what college shes going to, she is GOING to college. I think she deserves our respect for retaining some normalcy in her life.
