Miranda Cosgrove meets up with a few fans while out at The Grove in Los Angeles on Wednesday afternoon (July 11).

The 18-year-old actress stopped by a few shops before heading out to run a few other errands.

After she gets back from her concert at Universal Orlando on Saturday (July 14), Miranda will be prepping to head to USC.

“I’m looking forward to being back in a school environment after doing home schooling for so long,” Miranda recently dished to People mag. “I’m just excited to meet people and learn. I want to keep acting and I thought it would be easier if I lived in LA. And I get to stay near my family.”

Miranda will be studying theatre at the university.
