I made it a point to get D credit cards in her own name and not on our accounts. The first attempt for a Chase card was rejected, but then found out the banking person filled out the form wrong (seems to be a pattern here; maybe they get a commission for certain types of accts.) Re-applied, this time for their college student credit card. No problem. But the measly $300 cr limit wasn’t nearly enough for going to school in NYC, so I jumped at the BofA offer mailed to her. And with these rules changing next month, I looked into USAA (now open to lots more people). Applied on-line for another college student credit card. Guess I could just keep that card here and use it for her web purchases. (Really wanted to get her AMEX, but they didn’t offer it to college students.)
