No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Take your reports to a local credit union (Hopefully you belong to one, if not, join to build a relationship w/ them) and see if they will give you a loan. After they see your reports, they can either say "No not yet, do this and then we can look at it again in X months" or they will say, we're pretty sure we can, let's pull your credit." Probably not in those exact words.
