With parties, events, and presentations occurring every single day on campus, why not using your makeup skills to help other people look great.

Freelance makeup artists can generate revenue in the traditional sense of applying makeup to customers ahead of special occasions. Alternately, one of the newest ways to make money is by providing tutorial videos on social media.

10. Landscaping / Snow Removal

Landscaping and Snow Removal

If you go to school in an area with plenty of residential housing you can make a killing in the colder months by simply owning a $20 snow shovel.

If you live somewhere where you can store a lawnmower and weed wacker you can also earn in the warmer months. Even one lawn a day at $25 is worth $150 a week. Not bad for maybe 5 to 10 hours of work each week.

Other landscaping jobs can also earn you some great cash in your spare time.
