be the salon barber

In general, college students are cheap and everyone needs a haircut. Buy a cheap hair clipper and offer to cut off your friends’ heads for $5 each. If you’re talented with barber shears, add traditional cuts to your offerings and charge a little more. As long as you undercut your college hairdresser and do a good job, your business will grow by word of mouth. While you won’t become a millionaire by cutting your hair in the bedrooms, you’ll certainly make some decent pocket change, and the risk is extremely low.Get paid to promote parties

Are you aware of what is happening on your campus? Many students aren’t, and you may be paid to tell them what’s going on over the weekend. Here’s how to do it: attend freshman orientation parties; identify those students at the party who don’t seem to have many friends; tell them about your service and give them a business card with your email address offering a free trial; Create a PayPal account and start charging $10 per semester for bi-weekly emails and text messages informing subscribers about the hottest parties on campus. If you get a sufficient subscriber base, you can start charging organizations on campus to promote your parties. Think Van Wilder.
Become an image consultant on the internet

Are you a pro at creating cool Myspace layouts? How about keeping up with the latest trends in Facebook apps? Believe it or not, your friends may pay you to manage your image on the web. When you think about the importance that social networking sites have become in the college lifestyle, it’s easy to see why your friends with technical problems might be willing to pitch in so they can be part of the crowd.
Start an Airport Shuttle Service

If you have a car on campus, starting an airport shuttle can be one of the easiest ways to earn cash. Do some research and find out the most popular times that students from your university fly out of the nearest airport. Create a schedule and promote your service in campus forums, such as rideshare programs. If your university does not have active Internet forums, promote your service by posting flyers in dorms. Posting flyers in the communal bathrooms always works well. Make sure you charge a little less than competing transportation services and business will grow!

The key to earning money in college is initiative. With a little motivation and some hard work, you can turn your free time into money in no time. While your friends are wasting all their time on Facebook or playing video games, you’ll be hoarding it. Plus, with all the money you’ll earn, you’ll have a lot more fun in your spare time!
