Congrats! Fantastic card, you can call and recon your limit too Smiley Happy

 

As for it vs freedom, how much categories spend will you put on it? If you put $200 per month on category spend it's worth it to grab the it with the amazon promotion. If not, the Freedom is the right choice. Also consider that discover deals are doubled as well.

Re: What are some good college cards?

Not sure if I'll bother reconning my limit, it's already my highest by almost double Smiley Very Happy How much higher do you think it could even go?

 

But yeah I expect most expenses to get run through this card now, and I already have a 1% back on everything card so I may hold off on another. Otherwise the Freedom is more appealing with the $200 signup bonus.
