Why are you considering the Amazon card? Sallie Mae gets 5% back on Amazon doesn't it? Amazon's own card just gives 3%..

good point......probaly because sallie mae would decline due to bk, inq's, age of tradelines......the list goes on

Also think you would be approved.  I was approved for $800 with scores lower than yours.  I also had some recent student loan lates when I applied.  Let us know how it goes!!

are you talking about sallie mae or amazon?

Oops.  Sorry.  Amazon.  Someday Sallie Mae will be mine though! Best of luck to you either way.

Wooo!!  Congrats!  They will be great with the CLIs, too.  I got a $400 bump after just a few months!

Congrats!  I knew you'd get approved (I was approved for $700 CL with scores in the 630s).  I'm also aiming for Sallie Mae down the road.

OP is referring to the Amazon store card.

You're referring to the Chase Amazon Rewards card.
