No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Would you suggest I apply for more than one credit card or just apply for one and wait

X2, my dad was in the military and was not a member. I just called in and explained his involvement in the armed forces, the dates he was active and where he was based. After about a 20 min conversation (they never once spoke with my father nor does he have an account) I was approved for a membership. The rep even asked if I wanted to apply for anything over the phone without another HP. Really easy to work with.

^^^ This.
I'll only add the caveat that I've never read of anybody getting NFCU to use the membership HP for a credit product - they are generally quick to HP for every credit product (with the notable exception of sometimes using a CLOC HP for an installment loan).
That said, for most people the HPs are well-worth it.
Chase told me i had no offers so I'm not sure if that'll lead me to be denied if i were to apply. AMEX showed that I qualified for both the BCE and Blue Cash Preferred.

+1
Update:
I applied for the Chase Freedom Unlimited and got aprroved with a $7,000 starting limit. Thats more than what I hoped for!
Thanks for all your help
Congrats!! why not go for AMEX next?
