Education is important, and it can be challenging to pursue a degree when playing a major role in an eight-film-long series as a child actor. After Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2, the last movie of the franchise, Emma took a step back from acting to focus on her education and activism. A real-life Hermoine, we must agree. She enrolled at Brown University in 2009 and graduated in 2014. Though she starred in The Perks of Being a Wallflower during that time, she clearly prioritized personal growth and her work as a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador.
