[quote=Anonymous]Those on campus work study jobs usually pay very little and are often required to supplement additional student aid so that’s not really going to cut the mustard for spending money. Back in the olden times (early 2000s, so college was cheaper but still beyond my reach), I got $0 but my parents did pay for things like my plane tickets home and some clothes and a winter jacket. I had accrued quite a checking account with my summer job and babysitting money so I didn’t need anything else, really (a lot of that money went to tuition but not all of it). I did work additional on campus jobs for cash (catering, research) but it wasn’t much. And then junior and senior years I had actual off campus jobs and made much more money, but by that point I had real expenses like car insurance and more significant grocery money since I had grown weary of the campus food.
