As a Nigerian student, it’s not easy to survive in school with just your monthly allowance, and sometimes you just want to enjoy the good life without having to call your parents.
Nowadays, many students in universities are earning while in school to have extra pocket money and you can do that too. Fear not, because it’s time to level up your financial game. Here are some ways to make money in university.
Sell Snacks in Lecture Hall
Most of the times, students barely have time to have breakfast before leaving their hostels for lectures. You can turn your backpack into a mini convenience store and sell when the lecturer is not in class. This is a great way to earn some extra pocket money daily.
Convert your Culinary Skills into Money
If your jollof rice is the stuff of legends, it’s time to monetize that culinary prowess. Even if you’re not that great of a cook, it doesn’t really matter because most students would eat anything as long as it saves them time (but it’s always a plus to be a good cook).
You can cook for your fellow students for money. This doesn’t need a lot of capital and you’ll get plenty profit in return
Handout Hustle
We all know the struggle of going to the cafe and photocopying handouts and materials. You can help your coursemates do this for a certain price. It’s not the easiest way to make money, but you’ll have a bit of pocket money from this at the end of the day.
Offer Internet Services
You can offer a secure Wi-Fi connection for a small fee. Most students need a secure internet connection, and in a school area where a lot of people are present, it’s very hard to get good connection.
Offer Tutorial Classes
If you’re a bookworm or you understand one course more others there, you can offer tutorial services and turn your academic brilliance into a cash grab. Your brain is the ultimate side hustle – let it shine!
Put Your Skills to the Online Test
If you’re a good writer, graphic designer of know how to code, then you can help other students with their assignments and even project work for money. This is a good way to earn money while in school.
Campus Event Organiser
Do you love a good party? Or a well organised event? Then this one is for you. You can turn your passion into profit by organising campus events. From epic parties to informative seminars, you’re not just the life of the party – you’re the one getting paid for it.
So there you have it, aspiring studentpreneurs! With a dash of creativity, a sprinkle of hustle, and a generous serving of willpower you can flip your financial script. If you’re planning on earning money as a Nigerian student, you can use any of the hustle listed above.
