Fall is upon us and our courses are in full swing. As well rounded students we have paid for tuition paid (way too much) for books and spent more than we should have on school supplies, new clothes, and end of summer fun. Succinctly put, we could use some cash right about not.
Fall is upon us… and we need a job. But we don’t have time to punch the clock and we paid for these damn classes so we aren’t dropping them now. It’s time to hustle. Find a way to make some cash. Forget the $8 an hour at the grocery store. Here are 3 work opportunities with flexibility and the opportunity to make good money.
1.) Rake some leaves.
Potential income $20 an hour. Supplies needed – rake, tarp, yard waste bags.
The leaves are going to be on the ground in no time and people don’t want to rake them. In fact, they want to pay a young, motivated college student to rake them. The problem is, too many students are preoccupied handing in applications at retail stores to make the money. Go around your neighborhood and knock on doors. Explain who you are and that you will rake the entire yard

No, not at all. Glamorous when you have money to go out this weekend and your friend with the “cool” job at the mall doesn’t? Yes. Same deal here, call up friends and family, knock on neighbors doors and offer a bi-weekly cleaning services. $30 for a general cleanup (living room, dinning room and bathrooms.) Vacuum, dust, scrub the kitchen and bathrooms. Bring head phones and it will fly by. Your target market should be older people. Once you get past 60 or so the last thing you want is to deep clean the house. If you can get 8 customers you can pull down around $480 a month. If you get the hang of it start to add services and make more
The initial shock of the significant workload and expectations can take their toll, but good time management skills can prevent multiple late nights in a row to get assignments done on time. Kelci Lynn Lucier has worked in higher education for ten years, and has experienced students struggle to try and find the balance between extracurricular activities, personal activities, and education priorities. Luckily, Lucier has four tips to help best use the time provided in a day. Lucier’s first step focuses on managing ones academic time and how it needs to be the top priority above all other curricular activities, stating: “It's important to remind yourself why you're in college in the first place: to graduate” (Lucier).

Lucier’s fourth and final step is to not be afraid to seek help with your time management, she states: “The most important thing to have for time

Higher education comes at an extremely high price. The excitement of graduating college to land the six-figure job is soon destroyed when students realize how much debt they’ve obtained. Dreams of owning a house and starting a family are shattered by the money borrowed to provide and guarantee students an excellent future. Instead of waiting to land the ideal job, students work multiple jobs to help ends meet. Struggling to stay afloat, millions of students become victims of one of the major economic crisis in the United States today; Student debt.

The cost of tuition for higher education is quickly rising. Over half of college freshmen show some concern with how to pay for college. This is the highest this number has been since 1971 (Marill and O’Leary 64-66, 93). The amount of college graduate debt has been rapidly increasing also.

However, there is no time to ease up on the school work because as time passes, it will only become heavy. As well in movies, students will often find themselves staying up long hours of the night gulping down coffee just to finish or study for further assignments. Other than that, people will soon face the realization that the work will feel like it is
