How to make money
while you’re in school
While we can’t promise to make you rich by the time you
graduate, here are five solid ways to increase your cash flow,
college-style.
College is expensive! There are bills to be paid, weekends to
spend out, and shopping to do.
Way 1: Work-Study
Work study won’t bring in a ton of cash, but if you
budget carefully, it can help you make ends meet each
month.
Most colleges have limited positions available for
students who qualify. These jobs are great because
they’re designed not to interfere with your course work
and are always close by.
Way 2: Tutoring
One of the best parts about being a tutor is that you decide how much you make by setting your own prices and hours. Some colleges offer training programs for student tutors, so be sure to ask around.
Have a knack for physics? Happen to be a great writer? Know more than the average student about classical music? Put your skills to good use and start earning by tutoring your classmates.
Way 3: Part Time Jobs
Even if they aren’t hiring at the moment it’s a good idea
to fill one out so that, when they do need help, your
name is at the top of the list.
You probably won’t find part-time gigs around town on
the big job websites. Instead, pound the pavement: visit
the stores near your college and ask the manager for a
job application.

Way 4: Babysitting
When families find a sitter they like they’re usually very
loyal, which could mean a steady stream of income for
you.
Many colleges and universities have lab schools set up
for local kids and the children of professors. All of
those parents need babysitters from time to time.
Way 5: Lab Rat
Keep an eye out for advertisements in the university press and flyers around campus. While being a lab rat may not be your calling, it can be a great way to pull in quick cash.
University science, psychology, and sociology
departments often conduct experiments that require
volunteer subjects. In exchange for your time, they’ll
often compensate you with pay.
Although it’s tempting to pile on the hours at a part time job and sacrifice study sessions in the name of pocket money, keep your eye on the prize of graduation.
Remember the reason
you’re in college: No matter how you choose to make extra money in
school, remember the reason you’re in college: to get
an education that will help you for the rest of your life.
