As a student, getting a credit card was not as easy as my parents made it out to be. And recently, most credit card companies have changed their ways to reflect the CARD Act so that many do not award credit cards to students under 21. The CARD Act of 2009 (Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility, And Disclosure Act) requires consumers under the age of 21 to have a cosigner or steady income to obtain a credit card.

Alas, below is a shortlist of credit cards I recommend you check out if you are a student seeking a new credit card this year to start building your credit.
