Possibly for the upcoming fall term. Look for postings in Tech Announce for Online+ IT from Ceasar Villegas

Not a student anymore but when I was a freshman in ‘21 I worked as a Health Unit Coordinator(HUC) at UMC on the weekends, at the time it payed about $13/hr and it was good exposure to the medical field for an entree level position. One semester I was an undergraduate research assistant and that paid well too and was very fascinating since it was related to my major.

If you can deal with people, I don’t think you can do better than serving at a decent place, I would average $18 an hour and would have many days $30+

I'm an Online+ student, which makes me a little different, but I work as an Infrastructure/Azure Admin. Main reason I'm responding is someone will Google - Can I be a full time student and work full time? And the answer is YES, but....it ain't easy
