High Interest Credit Cards

Beware of credit card offers on campus, especially when they give away free t-shirts, frisbees, etc. You`ll pay for those "free gifts" 10 times over with the interest and finance charges you get on the card. If you get a card, pay it off at the end of the month. Credit cards are not free money.

About Credit Cards

When you get a credit card, make sure it has a good interest rate. Remember that these rates may fluctuate depending on the credit card. Don´t buy anything on your credit card unless you are sure you can pay it in full within the next three months. If you can´t handle that, then depend on a student loan rather than a credit card.
