<human>: I'm 23, headed back to college for a (second) BFA in art at CalArts, in the outskirts of LA.  It's a pretty good school for art, but I don't expect a lucrative job upon graduation, based upon observation and an attempt to be pragmatic.  

I will accrue approximately $20,000 in debt, if not more, in the two years I'm there.  I found a room for $500/mo in the town nearby, probably the best I'll get as I don't have a car/increased radius to search for housing. 

I'm not planning on getting a job during school, but will certainly seek one during the summer.

I'd like to get advice on whether my rent seems reasonable, how I could possibly make money in ways that wouldn't impact time spent in the studio/studying (aka low time commitment) 

Please don't say "change career path" in respect for my rather impractical career/school choice.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: art student getting mildly into debt and paying $500 a month in rent seeks ways to offset the debt--your suggestions and tips (especially for unorthodox sources of income) heartily welcomed.
