15 Ways to Save Money for Students
9. Paid internships
Companies open internship windows for students where students can benefit with the ‘learn and earn’ system. At the end of internships, interns get certificates and credits.
10. Share apartments
Share a room. Stay on-campus as it turns out to be much cheaper.
11. Save on transportation
Use bikes or stick to walking. With gas rates soaring, driving to college wouldn’t be a wise decision.
12. Don’t swipe, save
Avoid using credit and debit cards every time you shop. This will help you think twice before shopping and will make sure you are not indebted. It will also ensure you do not use more cash than planned.
13. Save on utilities
Save on your electricity and phone bills by making smart use of your gadgets.
14. Learn to say “No”
You cannot pick up everything you like off the shelf. Decide on the investments that makes sense. When you go shopping, opt for necessity and not choice. You might be losing out on a lot of neat goodies but you do end up saving a lot.
15. Be smart
Finally, this last step is about you being the wiser person and making the right decisions. Live the life of a student and spend on what you really need and what is worth it.
