| Citibank Citi® Driver's Edge® Card for College Students |
| This card offers no annual fee and a 0% introductory rate that applies to all transactions for six months (which is a rare benefit). Although it has a reasonable interest rate for a student card, there is a minimum cap of 20.24% for cash advances. So no matter how low the Prime Rate falls (the APR is tied to the Prime Rate), the interest rate will not go below the minimum cap. Through the reward program, cardholders earn a rebate of 1% for purchases. The maximum amount of rebates that can be redeemed is $2,500 per vehicle and any unused rebates expire in 5 years. Rebates can also be used for payment of maintenance. |  |
| American Express The Gold Card from American Express OPENSM |
| There is an annual fee of $75 for the primary cardholder and $35 for each additional cardholder. The fee for the primary cardholder and additional cardholders will be waived for the first year as long as the application is submitted online. Although this card does not offer the option to pay balances over time, it does help to prevent businesses from accumulating too much credit card debt, which can often be the case when paying only the minimum due with high interest rates. Therefore, those who can afford to pay in full each month, will be able to take advantage of the rewards program, as well as the additional discounts at participating merchants. | |
| Chase Bank Platinum Visa® |
| The credit card has a reasonable interest rate (lowest rates applied to balances equal to, or greater than $2,500), an attractive 0% introductory rate, and no annual fee. Individuals who have a banking account relationship with Chase will also be able to take advantage of a lower APR; 1% less than those who do not. However, the card does have a high APR for cash advances and there is a minimum cap applied to the APR. Through this program, cardholders earn one point per every dollar spent on general purchases. | |
