Building good credit can take time. Typically
most people's first credit card is secured - this is because a lot of credit card
companies look at students as being "high risk", as
most students have yet to establish credit and are typically not making a
substantial income.
However there are still a number of credit card companies prepared to issue
student credit cards. Therefore if you're fortunate to get approved for a student credit
card, think of it as a good opportunity to build your credit and take advantage
of the things you can't afford now but will in the future. At the same time
respect your credit, don't abuse your opportunity to establish a good credit
foundation for your future.
