A few corrections:
私、Ellieと申（もう）します。
22歳の大学生です。
(You don't have to specify that 今年は "this year" you're 22 yrs old. You can simply say I'm a 22 yrs old university student.)
暇なとき、小说を読むこともあるんです。
In this case, I -think- it's more like an expression for "free time", so that's why it's 暇なとき, and because it works as an adjective.
暇 is a na-adjective (な形容詞), but also and noun (名詞), but in this case it's just like in English: free (adj) time (n). Sorry if my explanations aren't good enough.
Other than that, your entry is pretty good. Congrats and good luck!
