Dear LMK,
Because you have not done any internships in the field, I think it's imperative for you to take the admissions job. You at least need to rule out admissions as a potential career path. (I ruled it out because my friend/mentor knew my personality and said admissions is too corporate for my personality.)
More importantly, since you know you will be graduating (you are not being cut off, you are graduating and will be responsible for yourself like the majority of graduating seniors) you need to focus on getting a job in a city or town with opportunities and roommates.
You will not be making a lot of money. But you should me making enough to pay for your share of the rent and expenses. If possible, look for jobs in a university setting so that you can continue to determine whether student affairs is a path you seek. But know that ultimately, you will need a Masters in that field if you want competitive pay.
Good luck!
