How to Manage Your Finances as an Indian Student? 

Seek part-time employment opportunities 

              

Whether you work while studying or opt for a weekend job, your income can help offset your food and living expenses. 

Apply for internships 

              

Consider pursuing internships during your studies. Many US companies offer competitive salaries for internships, which can boost your income. 

Opt for on-campus accommodation 

              

This often proves to be a more budget-friendly choice than off-campus housing. 

Utilize high-interest savings accounts 

              

Banks like Ally Bank or Synchrony Bank often provide such options. You can start by depositing small amounts. 

Explore investment opportunities 

              

Another way to save money is by investing in small amounts. These platforms allow you to trade stocks without any trading fees. 

Buy used textbooks 

              

Consider buying used books, and when you're done, resell them to recoup some of your costs. 

Brew Your Coffee 

              

While a daily Starbucks habit might be tempting, it can quickly drain your wallet. Invest in a coffee maker and make your brew at home. 

Keep an eye out for student discounts 

              

You'll earn points on your everyday purchases, and these can add up to some fantastic rewards or cashback benefits.
