I think you'll agree when I say this - going to college is very financially-draining.

Thanks to skyrocketing tuition costs, an average student leaves college with a student loan debt of $37,172.

This means that collectively Americans are burdened by $1.5 trillion in student loan debts! That's a lot of money, right?

Add other expenses like textbooks, food, and spending money - and, if you don't find ways to make money in college, your financial situation will be pretty miserable when you graduate.

But don't worry, because I've listed 48 real ways to make money in college - without having to miss a class!
