For many, the stress of being a full-time student can be far too heavy to even consider finding a side job. And for those who have a job as well as being a student, sometimes you still don\u2019t feel like you have enough money in the bank to live comfortably.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Luckily, being a college student allows for some opportunities to make money that are fairly low commitment. While nothing can come incredibly easy, there are ways that you can still make some cash without the stress of working hours every week. Choosing to take up any of these options allows you to focus on being a student first and lets you leave some of your financial stress behind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">-Be a note-taker in your classes, if applicable. You\u2019ll already be there; doing this forces you to really pay attention to the lectures and jot things down. Not only will you be making money, but you\u2019ll do better in school. You can apply in the Office of Disabilities. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">-Sell things online. I\u2019m not saying to sell everything you own, but think about what you have that you never use. Or, you could even buy things second-hand and resell it for profit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">-Tutor. Are you really good at your major? You can make money by helping others reach the skill level you are at. For more information and to apply, contact the Student Success and Advising Office.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">-Babysit\/petsit. Living in a college town, it can be hard to remember that we do live in a city where many families live. Many parents would love to hire a trustworthy and qualified college student versus an unqualified high school student.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">-Freelance writing. Here at the paper, we would love to have talented writers share their voice; for more information feel free to contact me or any staff member.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">-Use your talents. Can you knit? Sew? Paint? Are you good at making signs? People will pay for handmade, quality products. Start small by selling to people you know, and eventually you could branch out to different customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Contact the author at chealy16@wou.edu<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caity Healy | Lifestyle Editor Here\u2019s a fact that many of us know far too well: college is not cheap.
