- Another thing that I also
looked into was work-study. Work study is basically
the opportunity to work at college while earning money
to go towards your tuition, room and board, and fees. And the great thing about
that was that you don't have to work at some random place. You can definitely work at
something that helps you learn more, or maybe helps you
dive deeper in to your major. And I got to work at something
where I get to use my major, Product Design, in something
that I'm really interested in, Hygiene and Sanitation. And it's great 'cause
it's something I can put on my résumé, something
that I can look for a job after I graduate. And I'm learning a lot, and it's something where I feel like I'm really
impacting a community.
