One of the best ways to pay for college is to find work that helps pay part of the school fee.Here are four types of parttime jobs that provide students with extra income.
Jobs with employer scholarships
Some companies offer help paying for college through scholarship programs.Taco Bell，for instance，offers its parttime employees the chance to win up to a $25，000 award through its Live Más Scholarship.The award can be used toward vocational schools or a twoor fouryear college.Employees must have worked for the company at least three continuous months.
Workstudy
For years the Federal WorkStudy Program has allowed students to earn money through parttime work.Students aged between 16 and 24 who file Free Application for Federal Student Aid may be qualified for the program.While these jobs aren't always on campus，students in workstudy earn at least $7.25 per hour—the state minimum wage.
Paid internships
A paid internship(实习期) can not only help students pay for college but also can open doors for fulltime work after graduation.According to a 2019 survey by the National Association of Colleges and Employers，nearly twothirds of paid interns received a job offer，while just about 44% of unpaid interns were offered a job.
Ondemand jobs
The gig economy known for its flexible jobs can help students earn cash between classes.These ondemand jobs include completing small jobs，making deliveries or even driving for ridebooking services.Students can typically earn more through ondemand work，ranging from $10 to $20 an hour.
