If you're an undergrad then your full-time job is to get your degree. If not, then you probably shouldn't have gone to college in the first place... Why take on all that debt if you aren't going to take it seriously?

PS I didn't know this when I was an undergrad.

Or you could be me and work close to full time the entire time you are in university so you aren't in ridiculous debt when you leave. (that being said, I would have done much much better in my undergrad if I hadn't of done that)

Same here, I alternated between being a lifeguard and being a freelance coder and technical writer. Did a bit of studying in my free time...

But you can earn money anytime, I shouldn't have been so impatient.
