Emma Watson is headed to Brown

Emma Watson tried to keep her choice of college a secret from the media but it is now official that she will be attending Brown University.

Watson's "Harry Potter" co-star Daniel Radcliffe let her choice of university slip to The Guardian last week. Now that her secret is out, Watson confirmed that her plans for Brown.

"I've got a place there to read literature... I'm not trying to hide or anything like that. It sounds so geeky, but I really do like studying and reading," she told Paste Magazine.

She knows that because of the popularity of the 'Harry Potter' movies, hiding from the public isn't an option. "That's inevitable, I suppose, some of them must have seen the films over the years," she said, "But I do hope that it will be only a short time before I am known as 'Emma Watson, the student from the U.K.' rather than 'Emma Watson who starred in those 'Harry Potter' films.'"

Watson appreciates her unusual childhood because of the 'Harry Potter' series but is looking forward to being 'normal.'

"I've probably had to grow up far quicker than most other children," she said, "it has all been amazing, unique and incredible. And I'm still nineteen, so I want to do what a nineteen-year-old does. I want to be a teenager for the few months left."
