<p>I'm entering UCI as a Freshmen in about a month or two and I'm pretty sure I'll will need some spending money. Naturally, I thought that getting a job should do the trick. However, I then came to the realization that I'm taking 4 classes (15 units) and planning to join a social frat and/or organizations. That brings me to my two questions:</p>
<p>Is it relatively easy to find a job through Zotlink (versus finding a job on your own)?</p>
<p>AND....</p>
<p>Do you think it is reasonably possible to maintain a paying job, while managing school work/activities (NOT to mention all the hours I'll need for studying, homework, and projects)?</p>
<p>Thanks, Guys!</p>
<p>it CAN be done. ive seen people do a normal course load, part time jobs (roughly 10 hours a week) and still socialize and what not.
a lot of people ive met who could do it were very smart and didnt need to do much studying besides the regular homework (even that was a a little excessive). ive met some friends who weren’t as naturally gifted, so now they’re a bit behind in classes and good grades.</p>
<p>luckly, you will not likely be in too many small classes ur frosh year- this means that you probably wont be in any group projects, mostly larger lecture classes (unless ur an art major or something).</p>
<p>with all due respect, whether or not YOU can do the work is a totally different question.</p>
<p>It would depend. Try to find a job that is largely on the weekends if possible. I worked at Disneyland the past year and it was great because I pretty only had to work weekends.</p>
