艾玛·沃特森将转学否认遭同学排挤

    Actress Emma Watson has confirmed she will be transferring from Brown University to another school this autumn.

    The Harry Potter star’s announcement comes just days after it was claimed that the reason she put her studies on hold at the university was because she was ridiculed by her peers in class.

    Watson’s representative Vanessa Davies said the actress had decided to pursue a course not offered at Brown, and had “absolutely loved” her time at the institution.

    Davies also denied reports that Watson had been picked on at the Ivy League institution by fellow students.

    Watson is said to have been the subject of frequent jibes whenever she answered questions in lectures.

    A source told the New York Daily News: “They would respond with a quote from Harry Potter. The most popular choice was, ‘Three points for Gryffindor!’”

    Gryffindor is one of the competing houses at Hogwarts, the franchise’s school of wizardry.

    Watson, who was studying European women’s history and drama, has admitted being “scared” that she wouldn’t fit in when she arrived at the university in September 2009.

    Last month Watson, 21, announced she was putting her studies at the Providence, Rhode Island institution on hold.

    Watson is now busy working on a number of fashion projects before she turns her attention to the promotion trail when “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2” is released in July.
