Credit Cards For College Students

Jeffrey Said:

any credit cards available to college students?

We Answered:

My first card was actually an American Express Charge card, you have to pay it off each month, but it's a great way to build credit. Just go to the AMEX website and apply for the green card, it does have an annual fee (not much) but because of that almost everyone is approved.

Kent Said:

Can I get a credit card for college students if I go to a vocational or tech school?

We Answered:

If the school is accredited, and you're full time there, you should be able to qualify for it.

Are you looking for a credit card, or just to build credit? If you just want to build credit, start with a line of credit from fingerhut.com. I'm sure you'd be approved there.

Mildred Said:

credit cards for college students?

We Answered:

No income and no assets = no card. How would you pay the card when due? The bank would wonder, too . . . .

Matthew Said:

Can college students with no credit get student credit cards?

We Answered:

Depends
The new law that went into effect last February makes it a bit tougher for those under 21 to get credit. You either have to prove income or have a parent cosign.

Kathy Said:

Are student credit cards available to nontraditional college students?

We Answered:

Actually no limits except that you must be a full-time student and be over 18 years old.
As for the credit score, students credit cards may be given to those who have no credit at all.
Try your luck to find the best for your needs.
