118 Ways to Save Money in College #13

By http://www.scholarships-ar-us.org/

Make a Few Bucks

No one says you have to hold down a traditional part-time job, but there are tons of ways to make an extra buck or two while you’re in college.

110) We're not endorsing prostitution, but if you can give some of yourself by donating blood plasma, you can net an extra couple hundred dollars a month. But, be careful if you try combining this with alchohol. ;)

111) Volunteer for a medical study. Most do not require much time and you get paid!

112) Sell your expertise in a subject as a tutor, computer skills, music lessons.

113) Get a job in the food service industry. Chances are high that you can eat for free!

114) If you are a true subject matter expert why not create a website about your favorite topics? Many people make a few hundred to few thousand dollars a month from Google AdSense, by publishing relevant contextual ads on their websites.

115) Be your campus computer tech. Troubleshoot computer issues in exchange for a few bucks or a beer. Make yourself available in a pinch.

116) Solicit grad students for help with their dissertation research, proofreading, editing or document typing and formatting.

117) Don't forget to work extra and save up during the summer to make the school year more comfortable.

118) Offer a resume writing service. This can make you quite a bit of extra pocket money. But put it in savings.

Good luck! If you think “thrifty” we think you could possibly leave college with a little in your savings account to show for your hard work and efforts.
