Feeling stuck or avoiding your work? Join Study Hall!

It’s a focused and supportive space for all students to help you get things done.

Here’s what to expect:

• Set a goal at the start of the session so you know what to focus on
• Work in short Pomodoro bursts (25 minutes) to stay focused without burning out
• Take short breaks to recharge and connect with others
• Work alongside other students to boost motivation and accountability
• Bring your laptop, readings, or assignments and stay for as many Pomodoros as you want
• Small, consistent actions add up to big progress. Study Hall helps you build that momentum and make studying feel easier.

The format for each two-hour session is:

• Introductions and micro goal setting in group
• 25 minutes of independent work
• Review micro goal with group and set goal for next 25 minutes
• 25 minutes of independent work
• Review micro goal with group and set goal for next 25 minutes
• 25 minutes of independent work
• Debrief
