Still a lil' vague on your situ, but interpolating,
I suspect youth is firmly on your side, age and
potential career-wise.

If you have a few thou, toss it in a short term
acct., imo. If it's expendable and short term
as in 6 mths to 2 years, I'd throw half in an
index fund and 1/2 in a 6 month or 1 yr or,
2 yr CD.

When you graduate and get cooking in a career,
you will have plenty of time to hook up with your
company 401k, or ind. IRA.

When ya'll knocking down 200Gs+ in your new
career, come back and ask again. In the meantime,
park it prudently and accessibly, imo.

All of the above is simply an opin; I hold no credentials
for investing advice, other than true life, as in I bailed
at 53. Your mileage may vary...
