Now that she’s done with “Twilight” and she’s no longer tied to a single role / project, Kristen Stewart is working hard to wrap up some loose ends in her life: according to online reports, she’s decided it’s time she got a proper education by enrolling in university.

As of next term, Kristen will be a freshman in English Literature at the prestigious UCLA, an insider says for the Daily Mirror.

Kristen isn’t yet ready to put her acting career on hold while she continues her studies, which she dropped when she started getting more work in the industry, but she’s convinced that she can pull it off as long as she makes sure she doesn’t accept too many film offers.

“She is a voracious reader and cannot wait to get going on her correspondence course. It won’t be easy and it will mean putting in some fairly strenuous hours,” says the spy.

“But once she’s graduated, Kristen will be able to do almost anything she wants, in or out of Hollywood,” adds the insider.

As per the report, she’s fairly excited at the idea of going back to school even though, some time back, she explained that it was her disappointment in her teachers and the educational system that got her to drop out.

“[The teachers] didn't want to do the extra work or put packages together so I could keep up while away. My teachers failed me. Not one, but all of them. I'm always slightly ashamed in a way about what I do,” she said in a 2011 interview about dropping out of school, as we also reported at the time.

“I'm slightly embarrassed as I had such serious ambitions when I was younger, I just never imagined that I would ever have a reason not to go to school. But then this happened,” she added.

Kristen also said then that excessive attention from the other kids also got a bit too much, so this too contributed to her decision to drop out.
