Eh, I don't know, BOA has always approved me even with an albatross on my credit report for their secured card.  Graduated me once upon a time too; however, if you need a secured card, a BOA (or any other creditor imo) approval is always a good sign... personally I still think it's the best secured product out there.  Congrats!

I was denied in 2009 because of baddies.
