Seeking advice on Roth IRA contributions while in college

I'm a junior in college with a checking account and a HYSA, but I'm unsure how much to contribute to my Roth IRA

What I wish I knew
"How to balance college expenses with long-term savings"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider automating small, regular contributions to a Roth IRA while in college"
