Ways to make money in uni

Organise club nights
With many students out on the tiles two or three times a week there’s money to be made in entertaining them. Birmingham University graduate Gary Linton set up his own promotions company with a couple of friends in the holidays before his final year. “We established a brand, set up a website, scouted out suitable venues, designed flyers and hired bands.” As the money began to pour in – at its peak, the company was pulling in profits of between £800 and £1000 each week – they were able to employ a team to hand out flyers and a manager to oversee them. “It was a fantastic experience and I learned a lot about running a business. But it did require a good deal of work.

Model
if your not shy become an artist's model Many art schools and colleges will pay good money for life models to pose for their classes. This generally involves sitting around with no clothes on in front of a group of strangers.

Campus brand advertiser
All sorts of companies hire students to promote their brand campus, from film distributors to sportswear firms.
