Credit Cards For College Students
May 13, 2008 – 3:56 pmMy cousin is tentatively going off to college this September. He has applied for scholarship and I hope, for his parents’ sake, that he will be approved for it. At least then, his tuition fees will be taken care off.
This morning, he called me up and asked me again to recommend him the best credit cards. I already told him that day that he should make his own decisions for something like this. After all, he is a college going student already. I suspect my aunt must have asked him to consult me because she thinks that I have more experience when it comes to credit cards, plus she was afraid that he would misuse his credit card and get himself into debt at such a young age.
I told my cousin, Terence, to see credit card applications online, especially the terms and requirements to determine the best card for himself. I also told him to check with his friends to see what credit or debit cards they are using before making a decision. I figure it would be more appropriate for him to check with friends of his own age group. After all, a student requires a different credit card than a working adult like myself. Don’t you think so?

Sounds like a low blow to me, giving college kids credit cards knowing they will charge them up and most likely have issues paying them off.
