My grandson is considering staying in a TT while attending Texas A&M. Can anyone tell me if workamping is a possibility for college students? I did use the search feature but came up with zero results.
Thanks
In our first RVP after going FT, a young lady lived next door in an AVION TT. She was a FT student in college. It was an inexpensive way for her to live.
Most of the workamping positions I've read prefer a couple, but some will use a single. Since weekends are busiest at CG's, that would be when he would be free to work. There are quite a few RVP's within a few miles of TAM, so I would have him start calling around for monthly rates and the possibility of working for his site.

I stay in my own Travel Trailer while in college at Texas Tech.
I am not sure if your grandson will work while attending school, but I do and most days I will be gone from the trailer from 6:45 in the morning to 7, 8 or even 9 in the evening.
I would think that an RV park owner would want a person workcamping to be around in the daytime.
If your grandson is worried about the money, it will be much more profitable to find a job somewhere else.
Working one month for $200 of site rent would not be worth my while when I can make triple that working part time in only two weeks.
If he can do IT, webdesign, etc there is decent money to be made while attending school.
Take a look at my website in my signature for more info on how I do it.

we spent last winter in the bryon/college station area.....and just don't remember that many rv parks in that area.....we stayed out at somerville......but to make this work, he is gonna want a couple places to choose from...plus he might want to find a spot close so he can occassionally ride a bike or walk to classes.........and I just don't remember seeing any rv parks in that area when we made our sams club trips......hahahahaha......
