May is just around the corner, and that means one thing for Montana State students—finals week. The Spring Semester officially wraps up the first week of May, and we know how intense those last few weeks can feel. At boötes Apartments, we've designed our community with student success and well-being in mind, so when crunch time hits, you've got everything you need—right at home.

Private Study Pods + Group Study Rooms

Forget the crowded library tables and noisy coffee shops. Our private study pods and group study rooms offer calm, focused spaces to get things done. Whether you're editing a final paper, preparing for a presentation, or studying with your classmates, these spaces are a total game changer. Bring your laptop, settle in with snacks, and hit those study goals without ever leaving the building.

The Wellness Lineup You'll Actually Use

What makes finals week better? A built-in wellness routine. At boötes, you can take study breaks that actually reset your mind and body.

Start with a dip in the year-round spa—the warm water soothes tense muscles and gives you a little boost in mental clarity. Need something more intense? Hit the infrared sauna for a deep detox sweat, or brave the cold plunge to wake your senses before an early morning review session. If you prefer something cozier, our indoor lounge with a fireplace is the perfect post-study spot to unwind with a book, podcast, or your favorite playlist.

Walk It Off: Allison Park – Middle Creek Ditch Trail

If you're starting to feel the pressure, don't forget to step outside. Just a 3-minute walk from your front door is the Allison Park – Middle Creek Ditch Trail—a hidden gem perfect for a quick reset. Stroll past trees, trickling water, and quiet nature zones as you clear your head between study sessions. Sometimes, a little sunlight and fresh air are all you need to return feeling refreshed.

What's Happening On Campus

Need a break from the books but still want to stay productive? Check out what's happening over at Montana State this April. From academic workshops to social meetups and career resources, MSU is always buzzing with opportunities to connect. Use them as mini-breaks from study mode—and maybe even rack up some extra recognition along the way.

Study Smart. Live Well.

Finals don't have to be brutal. When you live at boötes, your environment helps you stay focused and chill. From thoughtfully designed study nooks to wellness amenities that keep you grounded, every detail here is about helping you succeed. And hey, even when you're not studying, you've still got luxury vibes and incredible mountain views waiting to welcome you home.
