Before the rumors get too out of control, Emma has decided to announce the news herself on her official website.
"As you know, I love Brown and I love studying pretty much more than anything but recently I've had so much to juggle that being a student AND fulfilling my other commitments has become a little impossible," Emma wrote.

"I've decided to take a bit of time off to completely finish my work on Harry Potter (the last one comes out this summer) and to focus on my other professional and acting projects," she explained. "I will still be working towards my degree... it’s just going to take me a semester or two longer than I thought."
"Hope you are all well! Emma concluded. "Thank you for all your continuing support."
