My little forum on credit card application
Handing out student credit cards to young people who may not understand the long term effects of debt is not the noblest undertaking. The results of a U. S. PIRG survey made public in March of 2008 examined the credit card behaviors of students. Freshmen who were responsible for paying their own bills on student credit cards had an outstanding balance of around $1300; seniors, an average of over $2500.
