This week on First Year to Fearless, Tammy & TKay are back with Episode 15: How to Close the Semester Fearlessly! 🎙️

It is the last day of classes, and the end of the fall semester is in sight. Tammy & TKay walk you through how to confirm what finals you actually have, how to read the Worcester State final exam schedule, and why understanding the format of each final is essential. They also share strategies for creating a finals week checklist, organizing your study materials, breaking your study sessions into manageable chunks, and tapping into campus supports like the Writing Center, STEM Center, Counseling Services, and ASC advising before schedules fill up.

The episode also digs into managing stress during finals, using healthy breaks and realistic goals, avoiding burnout, and recognizing your small wins throughout these next two weeks. Tammy and TKay also remind you to clean up your inbox, return library books, check for missing grades or assignments, and make sure your Spring 2026 classes are fully registered, not just planned.
