Can you house hack as a college student?

Posted
I am currently a student at West Virginia University and I was debating on doing a house hack as I got my masters here. I won’t have a solid income and that worries me tremendously in case I do have vacancies. I would use a FHA loan so I’m able to put just 3.5% down. I am currently reading up as much as possible on real estate. I don’t plan on doing this for another year, I am finishing up my junior year now. So my question is, do I wait to house hack until after I get a steady job or is house hacking earlier than that as I am getting my degree an option?
