If you're here properly, you should have no problem getting work-study or other part-time arrangement. Many sneak in and work under the table, so bon chance to you.

You should include a request for a work Visa along with your study Visa. My daughter took a course that was both classroom and work site so the school arranged both permits. In order to work you will need a Social Security Number so check everything out with the American Consulate nearest you well in advance.
Immigration is very tricky. I work with a Canadian who was raised in Yorkshire, England and is now back in Canada. He is a cross border trucker and was twice denied a FAST card which speeds up the processing at the border.

You can take a part-time job, on campus, working no more than 20 hours per week.
