Yes. College students can apply for credit cards. As long as you are over 18 years old, you can go to the bank to apply for a credit card.

College students can apply for a card, but the applicant must have good credit. If the credit is not good, once the bank finds that the applicant has credit problems during the approval process, it will naturally refuse to approve the card. Everyone needs to note that since most college students do not have stable financial income, the credit card limits they get are generally not high, and some provide an initial limit of zero, so they need to save money first before spending. Unless the student's family is wealthy and he has a lot of assets in his name, then it is possible to get a high-limit credit card. If a college student is under 18 years old, he will naturally not be able to apply for a main credit card. It is recommended that he wait until he is 18 years old before trying to apply; or if his parents have a credit card, he can also apply for a supplementary card of his parents' credit card first.
