Earning money in college

I need opinions! I've been a college student for almost three years now, and obviously, things are a lot different than they are in high school. I took a short break from school to try and get my financial situation together, and I'm a couple of days away from starting back up. I just have this lingering worry that I'm going to end up in the same position, trying to juggle school and work. So the real question I'm asking, is for those who have finished college/are currently taking classes FT. How did you do it? How much did you end up having to pay out of pocket, and if you don't mind answering, how bad was/is your student debt? I have some scholarships but unfortunately it doesn't cover everything, and I could take out loans, but considering the debt I could put myself in, I'm trying to make that a last resort. I'm open to hearing everyones experiences!

I think I was lucky as my my study fees paid via my father.So, I never faced such problem. And I was fully concentrated on my study when I was in college

Its good that the education here is not so expensive than other countries. I don't have to work my way to finish college. Maybe you can try to do online jobs so you don't even have to go out to work.
