I’ve already applied for 2 other cards and have been denied because I have not “revolving” credit history. But they weren’t student credit cards, which is what I guess I should have applied for first. Anyway what would be the easiest student credit card to get? Share your experiences please.

Here check this website out…they have a list of student credit cards (it gives an explanation of what each offers). =&af=&ac=
The Capital One® Standard Platinum for Students might be a good place to start. Capital One tends to be good about offering cards to people without any credit history.
Also, make sure to get a card that has NO Annual Fee.

Hello,
If you have been denied a few times, you might want to apply for a unsecured rcedit card that is more intended for bad credit – just to establish a credit history…you could also consider a prepaid card, but these are secured with a deposit.
Remember, each and every time that you apply for a student credit card, it will show up on your report. Once you have a little bit of a history (6 to 9 Months), you can reapply for a student credit card.
Hope this helps,

I would have to say Discover or Citibank check out and go under student cards.
