Do you want a good rewards program, frequent flier miles, a low APR, etc.? These are things you should consider, and make sure you don't get one with an annual fee. Even if you are just starting out, there are plenty of companies out there willing to give credit without charging you a yearly fee. ----------------------------------------- http://www.bestcreditrates.net But it really depends on what you are looking for.

Most important is to pay it off as quick as you can. Let any cash back build up for next Christmas. Good luck Pick the best interest rate and and rewards program like Discovers cash back.

They have high interest rates (but you pay off every month, so who cares?) and low limits (but you're a student and don't need a big limit) but with many there is no annual fee.

It is too easy for students to charge items and delay paying it off, getting into financial trouble that can last for years. But, if you are going to get another credit card, try to find one with a fixed interest rate and to research for one that is the lowest you can find. It should have no annual fee. And perhaps one that offers points or bonuses for spending. I would actually suggest for all college students not to get a credit card while in school.
