The 22-year-old British actress will resume her studies at Brown University in Rhode Island in January for the spring semester, according to Gossip Cop. Watson is returning to a familiar place – she originally enrolled at the Ivy League university in September 2009, but interrupted her studies in 2011 to focus on promoting the final installment in the “Harry Potter” series.

Instead of returning to Brown right away, she spent a semester abroad at Oxford University in the fall of 2011—a smart move, because that’s where she met her boyfriend, Will Adamowicz!—and then took another break from her studies to film The Bling Ring in the Northern Hemisphere last spring and Noah in the Northern Hemisphere this fall.

When Watson left Brown, she assured her fans that she planned to return to Providence. “As you know, I love Brown and I love college more than anything, but lately I’ve had to juggle so much that being a student and meeting my other obligations has become a bit impossible,” the actress – best known as bookworm Hermione Granger in “Potter” – wrote on her blog at the time. “I will continue to work toward my degree. It will just take a semester or two longer than I thought.”

Watson also denied reports that she was bullied on Brown’s campus. “When all this came out, it made me so sad that I left Brown because I was bullied,” Watson told Britain’s Sunday Times’ Style Magazine in 2011. “It made no sense at all. At Brown, it was the opposite… I’ve never been asked for an autograph on campus. I’ve hosted a party for almost 100 students and not one person posted a photo on Facebook. Anyway, even if I had had a hard time, I wouldn’t have chickened out because someone said ‘Wingardium leviosa’ or ‘Ten points for Gryffindor’ to me in a hallway. I’ve been dealing with the media since I was nine. If I can’t stand a few people giving me a hard time, that’s really a little pathetic. I’ve had a lot worse.”
