500 SL means you were very much borderline on approval in my opinion.  I would use it HEAVELY for the first say 55 days after getting it then request 3x CLI so that will make it 1500...  I wouldn't personally do a 3x right off the bat on a SL that started that low, I am guessing as stated you barely got approved, but if you can provide your EX fico score and AAoA that would help us a bit.  Just my 2 cents on the subject


Not so sure that a low starting CL is indicative of borderline approval.  Buggers only gave me $1K and I've had no problem getting approved for their cards and early approval for the 3X CLI. Without knowing what his credit looks like it's impossible to know what he should do.  


Okay, now I don't feel so bad about having to recon and transfer a limit to get a $2K Sallie Mae card.
