I have taken out student loans as I am in the process of college. They are subsidized and since I am still in college and I have not begun to pay them off yet. How would this be viewed by potential card issuers?

Im in my 3rd year at The Pennsylvania State University and I have a lot of student loans too. On my credit report they just reflect that: Paid or paying as agreed. Since you are not required to start repaying them back yet, they are going to reflect POSITIVELY on your credit report.

But, You should obtain a copy of your credit report to be certian (from all three credit reporting agency's)

Hope I helped!
