Finals week is a stressful time, but you don’t have to face it alone! Professionals at the Writing Center, Tutoring Center, and IUP Libraries will be available to assist you as you prepare for exams, finish up projects, perfect presentations, and proofread your papers.

And don’t forget to approach studying in smaller increments and to find the perfect spot to study on campus. This can make all the difference. Oh, and remember to reward yourself after completing a study session!

đź“‚A Thank-You to Your Future Self: Save Your Best Writing Before Summer |
Before you pack up for the summer, do your future self a favor: gather and organize your best writing from this semester. Save essays, research papers, cover letters, and any other work you’re proud of. These pieces will come in handy for future internships and job applications. And if you earned a Business Writing Credential this spring through our Wednesday Workshops, make sure to check in with IUP’s Kathleen Jones White Writing Center before you leave to receive your certificate!
