Emma Watson has decided to trade in her wizarding robes for textbooks as she has reportedly signed up for a part-time creative writing degree at Oxford University. The 33-year-old actress, best known for her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies, was last seen on screen in 2019’s Little Women, directed by Greta Gerwig.
The course at Oxford only requires Emma to physically attend a few lectures, with the majority of her coursework being completed online. A source revealed to The Sun that the course caters to older adults and can be done at a part-time pace, which suits Emma’s busy schedule. She will only need to be on campus for a few days each year, as the rest of the course can be completed from the comfort of her own home.

Emma only needs to attend a few in-person lectures for her Masters course, as the majority of her studies will be done online. Given her fame, she will have a security team accompanying her to classes for her safety. The university staff have been informed about this arrangement. The college charges £20K for the two-year program, which includes two retreats and a research placement. MailOnline has reached out to Emma’s representatives for a statement. Recently, Emma has been turning heads with her chic outfits at Milan Fashion Week. Despite being targeted by a suspected stalker in the past, Emma continues to make stylish appearances. During New York Fashion Week, a man named Chad Michael Busto tried to force his way into Emma’s dressing room and was subsequently arrested. Authorities reported that Chad disrupted a show by barging into a dressing room and shouting at makeup artists and models.
Claim to fame: The actress shot to stardom portraying Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies alongside Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe.
Flashback: The last time she graced the screen was in 2019’s production of Little Women directed by Greta Gerwig, featuring Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Saoirse Ronan, and Eliza Scanlen.
According to court documents, he reportedly shouted, “I want to marry Emma Watson! Let me talk to Emma Watson. Let me get a picture with Emma Watson.” It was uncertain if the actress was present or nearby during the supposed incident.
Chad was eventually released from jail as the prosecution deemed the alleged offense not warranting bail. This development occurred shortly after his previous release by a judge in Southampton following his arrest for fourth-degree stalking of actress Drew.
He was said to have shown up at the actress’s residence in the Hamptons on August 23, just two days after a confrontation with her at a live event at the 92nd Street Y.
