The 19-year-old Harry Potter star was photographed chatting to students and walking around the campus of the Providence, Rhode Island facility over the weekend.
According to the Daily Mail, she arrived on Wednesday to enroll in her English Literature course. It has also been suggested that she might take a geology class in her first term.
Speaking earlier this year, the star admitted that she was attracted to US universities because they offered "relative anonymity" and the chance to "fade into the background".
She also played down reports that she was going to quit acting in order to focus on her academic studies.
Watson will return to the UK during her university vacation time to complete filming on Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, the final two movies in the magical franchise.
