Are your current cards limiting your day-to-day spend habits?  Ok, so your oldest CC is about a year old but what is your overall AAoA?  FICO scores?  Inquiries?  What kind of rewards system are you thinking of (points, cash, etc.)?  As far as utilization, it seems to be within the ideal range (lower would be optimal).

Then do as Nixon suggested, gardening and build your history to consider better approval options down the road.  You can be Nixon's garden buddy Smiley Wink

Not much in the way of major credit cards open to you now  UNLESS one of your parents has impeccable credit and little debt add can add you on to a card that is no more than 4 years old as an au. Intro capital one cards will only grow so much then you have to apply for a higher level card like Quicksilver or Venture. You have the Barclays which is a decent starting limit.  

 

Just chill for a couple of months and let the accounts age. Is the Q1 on credit steps? If so see what the cli will be. Keep your util under 30% before your statements close.
