Easiest way is to put money in index funds like voo, QQQ, and SPY. Don’t put in money you might need in 6 months to a year. For an emergency fund, shop for an HYSA with the best rates you can get. That way you’ll generate 3-4% interest while rates are high.

See what programs you can do. I agree with 1 and 2 about investing but ideally you’d do something to help jump the speed early on. Check for tutoring positions that are flexible so you can help when you can or even do your own independent thing. Find what other students want that you might be able to provide.

Stocks High Yield Savings Account CD’s These are all basic options with varying risk (riskiest to safest), I’d say just start looking at where you can put your money OTHER than a regular savings account
