TU 04- How to get this?

I'm stuck in a catch 22.  I want to get the Walmart Discover card to get TU 04, but I don't think I can qualify.  Can I just call up Walmart, or even apply online, wait for the denial, and then ask my credit score?

Current Cards:
Khols $300, Avenue $280, Capital One $500

EQ: 632 (myFICO)
EX: 594 (myFICO)
TU: 644 (Credit Karma FAKO)

Walmart (GE moneybank) gives the TU08 I do believe.

Starting Score: 504
July 2013 score:
EQ FICO 819, TU08 778, EX "806 lender pull 07/26/2013
Goal Score: All Scores 760+, Newest goal 800+
Take the myFICO Fitness Challenge

Current scores after adding $81K in CLs and 2 new cars since July 2013
EQ:809 TU 777 EX 790 Now it's just garden time!

June 2017 update: All scores over 820, just pure gardening now.

You won't get a FICO score with your denial....at least I didn't.  I got a score based on their internal scoring method.  I think it ranges from 300-620.

(EX08 - 654) --- (TU08 - 643) --- (EQ08 - 667) --- (EQ04 - 676)

Walmart supplies 08 TU not 04. With A new report pull here you now get 04 for EX and Eq. TU is supposedly in the works. This is in addition to 08 scores, and also bankcard and auto enhanced scores.
