WALLETHUB- The best credit cards for students can help you build credit and save big time. They offer generous rewards, 0% intro rates and low fees. And they aren’t too hard to get. You can have absolutely no credit history and still be approved for the very best credit card for students. You just need an active college or university email address and enough income or assets for the monthly minimum payments (usually around $15 for students).
