look to a credit union for a better rate
take what credit limit you can et (probably about $300-$500), keep the card current, and ask for a credit increase after 12-24 months of on-time payments
Also, for a student loan--apply through the gov't...www.fafsa.gov
better rates, tax-deductible interest

Do NOT go to a pay day lender!!! That is the most common way people fall into serious debt. They are just ridiculous with the fees and rates they charge people who feel they have no choice. Check out getting loans from local financial institutions like banks or credit unions. They tend to be easier to finance with than larger companies or credit cards. Plus after a few ontime payments you can request they reevaluate the loan and maybe increase your limit. Also, you may need a co-signer if your credit is not great. That just means someone else, like a parent, family member or friend will sign that in the event you were to not pay they would pay for you. So, obviously if the person trusts you will pay the loan they will be willing to help you get on your feet. Good luck!

Have you tried getting a student loan through sallie mae, capital one, ect? They give them to just about anyone. Financial aid through your college may also be an option. If your debt to income ratio is low enough, you should be able to get a loan for more than $300 from any bank. The interest rate will be higher than someone with great credit would get but still much lower than a credit card. The student loan is really the way to go since you do not have to start paying it back until 6 months after you graduate. A financial aid officer at your school should be able to help you.

Have you checked into your local credit union. If you have a good job you could apply for a personal signature loan. Check if they will give you a on your vehicle if you have one. That could get you more than you think

If you have been paying faithfully on your credit card every month, ask the credit card company if they can up your credit limit by $200, which isn't very much money.
