Patty,

Thanks for your inquiry! I would suggest that you "check out" our "Student Credit" section if you haven't already. The web address for this section of our site is...

Obtaining a credit card should not be difficult at your age (credit card issuers spend millions of dollars each year marketing cards to young adults), but it will be difficult to find one with many benefits. Cards with benefits are generally only available to consumers with an established credit history.

Goodluck and let me know if we can be of any further help!
