History:

Citi Student Loan: 2 yrs 2 months
Citi Dividend: 1 yr 7 mos
Cap1 Plat: 8 mos
Chase Plat: 7 mos
Bloomingdales: 4 mos
Chase Rewards: 3 mos (no inquiry! they gave it to me while I was opening a bank acct)

Gonna try again in a few months (like 4-6)…will wait and keep my balances below 20% of my credit line. By then, 2 out of my 5 inquiries will be gone too. Should be good for one by then, I would hope.

Thanks for the advice alaskan!
