College student and credit card. To your parents, those phrases may equal a big headache, but they can relax. With the Citi® mtvU Platinum® Select Visa® Card, they won't need to co-sign your account, so you're totally on your own. Plus, this college student credit card may very well be on the same level as your parents when it comes to financial and academic accountability.
A Student Credit Card with Very Adult Rates
The Citi® mtvU Platinum Select® Visa® Card for College Students is offering something pretty unheard of for a college student credit card - a 0% APR on purchases for the first seven months, if you qualify, based on your application and credit history. After the seven month honeymoon comes to an end, the variable APRs for balance transfers and purchases are both reasonable for a student credit card.
mtvU + ThankYou® Network = Fun
You might be used to earning grades but you might not be used to earning points. This card ties the two together. Twice a year, depending on your GPA, you can collect up to 2,000 additional ThankYou Points®). And, for every billing cycle that you submit a payment on time, you ll be awarded with 25 ThankYou Points®.
Plus, youll earn five Thank You Point® for every dollar you spend at the movies, restaurants, bookstores, on CDs, and on video rentals, and one You Point® for every dollar you spend everywhere else.
Once you've scored enough points, you can turn them in for travel, gift cards and more. Points are good for five years, and are capped at 75,000 points a year.
More Than Your Typical College Student Credit Card Benefits
The Citi® mtvU Platinum Select® Visa® Card for College Students comes with free, secure online account management services, including free downloads of your statements and the ability to monitor account activity. Better still, with the automatic bill payment feature, you can stop worrying about missing your deadline and focus on getting good grades (and therefore, more points.)

This college student credit card also carries no annual fee and a slew of other benefits. These include access to credit education tips and tools, medical and legal referrals, discounts on car rentals, lost/stolen luggage help, and, if you ever need it, emergency cash/card replacement support and lost/stolen card reporting services.
