Travel Tips
If you have a work permit, things will be a bit easier. Without a work permit, your options will be limited. In my case when I first came to the USA, here were things that I did to support myself through college:

* work-study (as mentioned by another answer, this option should be available to all foreign students): working in school, e.g. in cafeteria, tutoring other students (I did this for math/science classes, as at the times math/science programs in Vietnam were a bit more advanced than in USA's 4-year college), in library. With this option, you can work up to 20 hours a week, though with low pay.

* (with work permit) work for fast-food restaurants, where the pay is low but the requirements are also not so high that you cannot apply for the work

* (with work permit) career-related internship, especially during summers. Toward your junior/senior years in college, you can apply for internship at companies related to your majors. For example, if you are working toward a computer science degree and are lucky enough to live in the Bay Area (Northern California), many companies there do attract top-notch students for intern positions throughout the year.

* (without work permit) work for cash (kind of not legal but many people do it) in places like restaurants and grocery stores. Here the wage is very low; however, you could at least get some money to help your parents while they support you going to school in the USA.

Best wish!

Let me rephrase your question so that's more comprehensible.

"What type of jobs offer in USA so that I can support myself when I move abroad to USA to study this year?"
get a loan or a job

If you are entering the United States on a student visa it is illegal for you to work except in a University approved work-study program.

As a practical matter, if you will be in a community with a large Vietnamese population (and assuming you are a Vietnamese national) you may be able to find employment within the community especially in such jobs as waiter or busboy.
If you're going to study in the US, the will you be coming here on an F1 student visa? If yes, then as an International student on an F1 visa, you are eligible to work 20 hours per week on-campus. You could work as an assistant to a professor, as a department office assistant, at the school cafeteria, at the college bookstore, etc. This will definitely earn you enough money to manage your living expenses like rent and food. If you are not coming here on an F1 visa, but are here on another visa vategory, then you will have to check with the US Immigration website to determine whether or not you are eligible to work on-campus or off-campus.
Go to a fast-food place for employment or go for manual labor.
