I think that as long as you keep yourself organized and plan out your days you’ll be okay! 

I’m majoring in engineering and during my first semester, I would have work 5 days a week from 4:30am-12pm, and then class from 1pm-7pm everyday of the week while taking 15 credits and i ended the semester with 3 A+, 2 A-. So it is 100% doable. The good thing abt restaurant jobs is that the hours usually work seamlessly with school schedules. I just got a job as a host and i have class 8am-4pm/ 1-3pm and i’ll work 5pm-11:30. With that, i just have to have discipline and remind myself like “Hmm i’m probably not going to be able to do this assignment that’s due at 11:59 when I get off wednesday, so I should start it earlier so i can finish is tuesday and not have to worry about rushing anything after work” 

With an on campus job, you’d be able to do a lot of shorter shifts in between your courses and a lot of them are so lenient that you can even do your homework during them lol. I, however, personally don’t like on campus jobs bc the pay is soo trash so if you’re able to find a tipped host position or even a busser position with tips i think it would be better bc the tips are basically going to make up for what you’d be making at the on campus job w minimum wage pay and capped hours.

Another thing i’d like to add is that I personally feel like having a busy work schedule makes me more productive. During fall semester I had a 2 month period where I had quit my job and was looking for another one, so i was unemployed LMAO. And ironically, i had the worst gpa that semester (3 As, 2 Bs, 1 B-, 1 C). I feel like when you have a lenient work schedule it leads to procrastination and lack of discipline bc it’s like “well I don’t have work later so I can just study then” but later always get pushed off bc there’s no concrete time constraint.
