Minnesota State University

I believe that you are asking for on-campus housing but I’ll give you the information about the both types of housing you can take here either in campus or nearby. If you take up a double sharing room for an entire academic year, it’ll cost you around 6600 $ and lets say you take up a full bath single in a 3 person suite for an academic year  then it’ll cost you a good amount of about 9300 $. You can do the monthly maths here. For food, anytime meal will cost around 3300 $/year. However, if not the campus housing there are options outside too. From 500-700 $/bedroom +bathroom are the rates outside and here best thing is food is upto you. Around 150-200$ is enough. So, lets say if you are living outside and sum up your expenses for a month including entertainment and transportation I don’t think an average life living student will go beyond spending 1100-1200 $/month.

Hi Preeti, getting a part time job in Minnesota state university isn’t that difficult however there are two types of targeted part  time jobs and both have their differences as per the demand. If you are looking for on-campus jobs then there could be a bit of hustle as everyone else wants the same. I mean who doesn’t want to land a part time job while not leaving the campus. You can easily manage your classes and your part-time so because of competition it might get a bit tricky but if you got something to prove you’ll right away get it be up with your communication skills and market yourself well. But, don’t worry if you don’t land on an on campus job, there are plenty off campus jobs available for getting these the university itself has a portal called ‘Handshake’ and to be honest it’s good you can find part time jobs there as well or you can try indeed too. So, yes it isn’t that difficult here and almost every student is working somewhere.
