Jobs. Its how most of us make it through college having a little bit of money. I know without my job I wouldn't have a house, or cloths, or even my dog. So for me it has always been a mandatory thing.
There are plenty of job options around most college campuses. You can work at a coffee shop, clothing store, restaurant or even work on campus. As long as you put some effort in then you can definitely find a job somewhere.
Personally, I think the best option for a college job is being a server at a restaurant. It is something that I have done my whole college career and still had time to study and hang out with friends all while still having PLENTY money to pay bills.
My usual day consists of about 3-5 hours of of being at work. Which is really not that much if you really think about it. Most people who have other jobs, like working at a clothing store are there for about 6-8 hours and don't make close to as much money as I do because they only make minimum wage. While I might only make $2.13 and my check are always $0, I usually make about $20 an hour on any given day.
The trick is, work at a nicer restaurant instead of somewhere like Applebee's (No offense). But the reason that I do make so much money is because of the clientele that we have come in. They are usually upper middle class or upper class citizens, who tend to tip a lot more than someone who is lower middle class.
I do know plenty of people that make it through college not being a server though. So if its not your forte (which it really isn't everybody's) then there are plenty of other options out there for you.
Work it, work it
