This student is a 20 unit UCLA Law major who needs money but can't even work a part-time job. Without inculding college debt, this student needs 1.5k every month(rent, car, gas, food, insurance, utilities). A part-time min-wage job is not an option due to class load and $400-$500 isn't worth negitive effects on performance.

Thus, I'm asking for out of the box ideas. No "get a job at McDonalds" or "Spend less money". Those have already been thought of and done.

I'm not looking for "free money" and anyone who thinks such a thing exists should just kill themselves now.

My situation: My third of the rent, car+insurance payments, food, gas, share of the power bill is $1800. I work a paid internship which helps with the school debt and bills. I have 3 scholarships. I've already committed 80 some hours of the week. I need a way to make soild extra cash that won't take up massive amount of my time.

A job on campus might be manageable, especially if you can set your own hours. Working for the school or tutoring or something where you're never far from your academics and can set your own schedule.

$1,500 isn't exacly chump change, so I expect you'll have to find some means of commiting something of yourself to earn it. Otherwise, you're talking about free money, and there's just no such thing, discounting Lotto winners.

It sounds really ugly (and it is), but a good waiter or bartender working in the right establishment does really well in tips. You should be able to earn the money you need doing that, but again, you have to find room for the commitment.

You could also assess your environment - your dorm if you live on campus, or your building if you rent an apartment, and look for a need that's not being filled and provide a service to fill it. It'll take some creative thinking on your part, but it could be a convenient, low commitment way to bring in some worthwhile cash.

Would you have time to work as a legal assistant/paralegal for a law firm? That would double as relevant experience while you're still in school.

Have you tried grants and student loan programs? Maybe take on a roomate to share expenses? Would it be less expensive to live on campus than to have high Cali rent and utilities? Do you have parents, grandparents or other relatives who could finance your education until you gradulate and begin working? Explore options

Learn enough good magic tricks to do a 45 minute show for birthdays and daycares. Birthdays are usually on Saturdays and daycares are midweek around 10 am. Keep your price around $100 each to start.

I would consider going to your career services department at your school or even just asking people at your school who you can talk to, to get a job that works around your school schedule. Most Universities take care of their students needs. I would be more outspoken at your school of your needs. Talk to instructors, etc. They most definetly can help place you somewhere that you can balance school and work.

I thought bank loans were common for law & med school students? You should certainly be able to pay them off after you're through...
