There are LOTS of threads on this. Many college agers have BofA, because it can be tied to your checking/savings and paid online. My son has one and he pays whatever he charges right away from his checking account. Gives him the flexibility of the card without the worries of a big bill looming. He has had it for a year, and never paid a dime of interest.
A debit card wasn't as good because he had work expenses this summer that he needed to charge, then get reimbursed. When reimbursement check came, he put it in checking, then transferred the funds.
