CREDIT CARDS FOR STUDENTS Download to Excel 
As a student it can be difficult to get credit. Students generally have to watch their funds carefully with no regular income but with everyday living costs (plus a social life!), a student has to manage finances well. There are times when they may need access to credit to cover expenses. We advise if as a student you get a card that you use it sparingly in times of unexpected expenses.

Most of the cards will have the credit limit capped at a low amount so you will not be able to get into too much debt. Also keep an eye on the APR it is usually a bit higher than normal credit cards as a student lacks the security of a regular income. If you just need a card to spend online and in shops, rather than actual credit you may also consider getting a prepaid card which wont get you into date.
