I am currently still in school and I am trying to learn about day trading so that I may pursue it as a career when I graduate. I was wondering if anyone has any helpful tips about getting started with day trading.

Use ET search @ http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/search.php?s=
There's a list of schools that have full trading rooms, internships with Wall Street firms for students at those schools, classes in trading, school trading competition with other schools (some actually sponsored by NYMEX, CME, ICE, Eurex exchanges)...
Yet, if you don't want to do the research, I'll give you a short list from a bigger list that includes graduate schools abroad in other countries totaling over 300 schools that has "trading" as part of the undergraduate and graduate curriculum:
University of Texas, Carnegie Mellon University, University of Richmond, University of Rhode Island, UC Irvine, George Washington University, Bentley University, Ball State University, MIT, Univ. of Houston, Univ. of Michigan, University of Lethbridge in Canada, Queen's University Belfast and many other universities that have trading rooms for business students, finance students, economic students and so on...direct networking with financial institutions around the world.

Simply, if you're serious about trading as a career, you should at least consider changing schools unless your school already has a program for such.
P.S. There's been several new members as "one post wonders" the past few years making similar posts as yours and never posting again at Elitetrader.com
Therefore, just in case you return to this thread again to read but not post...you're welcome.
The CME is registering for their upcoming trading competition currently. I just signed up a small group to compete for the first time this year at my school. OP, check out the link below and get a small team together to sign up. The CME provides the real time data and you trade through CQG Integrated Client. It is free and there are cash prizes if you are in the top 4.
