Check with international organizations located in the city where you are going. The French laws may be the same for them, but they may need people with skills, like English language which may exempt you.

It will be very difficult in France. If you only have a student visa. But you could possibly get work as an au pair. If you speak French, many families would like to have their children learn better English. Plus you would really be immersed in the culture. Do you have to live on campus? Most au pairs live with the family though. The French are also not exempt from hiring people for odd jobs. Speak French even if your accent is bad. You may be able to get a job helping in a restaurant or in someone's house.

You do not state your nationality, so I'm assuming that you are therefor an American. If you were English and an EU citizen, then the question wouldn't arise. I suggest that you ask at the nearest French consulate. Sash.

Working in France during your studies. French law allows foreign students to work under the following conditions : a maximum of 964 hours per year can be worked ( during the school year : part-time / during vacations periods : full-time within the 964 hours yearly limit).A proof of payment from Campusfrance.
