Last year I worked 10 hours a week with 20 engineering credits. To be honest it really sucked, but it paid for books and some of my tuition. If you have a light course load I suppose 10 hours a week wouldn’t be bad, but I really would not do it with a tough course load. (If you can afford it, I would not work at all unless it’s something like research; you’re at Cornell, you should focus on your studies.)

You can search for jobs here once you get a NetID:

You can start looking and perhaps applying before orientation if you want, but most of the postings seem to come a bit later, maybe during freshman orientation.
