I know this isn't directly answering your question, but I feel like this would be good to know (if you don't already, not to be patronizing or something)

You know, if an off campus apartment is too burdensome, you could try living in college housing. I know dorms might not seem like the best option (to some people anyways), but they do provide a good option if you can't work as many hours as you need to to pay your rent. The cost of the dorm goes on a student loan (most colleges have a cost of attendance that includes a required housing budget), so might as well take advantage of that so you can fully enjoy campus life. That's just my advice. Also, some campuses have university owned apartments that are also covered by financial aid and loans (that's where I'm living right now!).
