I'm about a month away from my senior year of college starting and I'm beginning to look into the prospect of having a job on campus. I've noticed on the school website a number of potential jobs are available and this has created something I think might be a problem. If I am to apply to a number of positions and get accepted to more than one, I'm faced with having to deny one job in favor of another. Is this normal for people to do? Or should I apply to one and then wait it out and if that doesn't work out, reapply to another?

I worked one job during high school and so far in my college career I concentrated on my schooling, but at this point in life it's becoming necessary to take on a job during the school year, so I come to the TFP with my limited job knowledge in search of some aid

Thanks guys.
