Has Miley Cyrus' climb taken her to the halls of higher education?

There's a report out there that the 19-year-old has enrolled at Chapman University, a private Christian college in Orange County.

Well, the pop star is certainly the right age, the school is certainly in a good location for a student involved in the Hollywood scene and Miley and her family have talked publicly about their Christian faith.

It all fits...or does it? Hang onto your transcripts, coeds, because this story is...

So false! Have you seen Miley wearing any Chapman Panther gear?

"It's just an Internet hoax," Mary Platt, Chapman's director of communications and media relations, tells E! News, adding that the rumor also surfaced a year ago and that she hopes it isn't a member of the university's admissions team—because they have a strict confidentiality policy concerning student enrollment.

She was able to comment, Platt noted, because the pop star is not enrolled there.

In the meantime, Miley—who looked stunning on The Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth's arm at the People's Choice Awards—is still trying to figure out her next step, movie-wise.

Hey, she could always play a college student!
