I’m looking at getting my first credit card. I’m 20 years old and I have a credit card that is linked to my parents, so I have near perfect credit. I’m trying to start building my own credit and I want to know what is the best card for a young person trying to build their own credit.

Im 22 and have been out of college for over 1 year. My parents provide no financial assistance; yet the government and school won’t provide me with aid because of my parents income. The estimated family contribution is too high. I work monday-friday 9-6 and cant make ends meet as is. I have terrible credit and no shot at school loans or grants. I have wanted to finish school and i am in my junior year. Because i was working 3 jobs to pay for school my grades dropped tremendously and i was put on academic probation. I have the determination and drive to make something of myself, just cant find a way to afford living and going to school. I am nobody special- i have no family involved in organizations who provide scholarships & my grades arent good enough to be awarded. I was recently accepted to the university i wanted to attend & am so excited but i dont know how i will afford it. Can anybody give me any advice? I appreciate any help on my problem. Just cant find a way to succeeding:(

I have been in a debt management program with a local credit counseling service for about 8 months. My parents have offered to co-sign a loan so I can pay off the cards. The loan with the bank is a lower interest rate than the cards and will pay them off faster with a lower payment each month. Should I pay the cards directly or go through the credit counseling service? Which is better for my credit score?
