If you’re a good writer, work at the writing center! It’s easy, fun, and you get paid for socializing and doing your homework (and helping people out!) I worked there without pay for one semester and next semester I’ll start getting paid. Honestly I didn’t even mind that I wasn’t getting paid because it was that fun and fulfilling.

Campus jobs are the easiest because the people running them understand that you’re a student first. I just emailed the head of the writing center over winter break, pleaded my case, and a few months later I was working. We get to set up our own schedules and decide how many hours we want to work - very flexible. I’d highly recommend getting a job that pertains to a potential major or deep interest you have, but as naturaldistaster mentioned, sometimes jobs outside of that can help you branch out with new friends.
