I am a university student and I am wondering how much do university students earn normally during school term? How common is it for students to be working while studying full time?

I worked throughout the 4 years in University. Especially when mine includes a 3 - 6 months exchange in one of the most expensive cities in Europe, Munich.
I taught tuition, remote jobed (crypto), worked at FnB outlets. Definitely, it took a toll on my studies and my body, however, I knew that if I don't sacrifice something to get an income, I won't even be able to graduate. Although my results ain't satisfactory, I pulled through and graduated loan-free.
My current job is due to the hustle I put in during my University studies.

Personally I prefer putting more focus on studying. I earn side income from giving tuition ($25-30/hr), taking up internships or part time jobs during the semester break and invest both actively and passively. Just a note, you got to do your homework before you decide to invest!

If you want to help alleviate your living expenses, another way is to apply for bursaries or mid-term scholarships. I did work a few ad-hoc jobs as a photographer for various sch events. Faculties are always looking for student assistants to do various jobs. You can consider some of those as it might value add to your resume. Ultimately, you must balance your time well. Is money a priority for you in uni that you need to do side hustles/PT? Or do you think you can focus on your studies/projects in uni to land a better internship/career opportunity?
