And cause rejection sucks.
From your personal experiences;
•Which bureau did Discover pull from for you? EQ
•Did you cold app or were you pre-approved? Pre-approved
•What was your score at the time? 655
•What SL were you approved for? 1200
•Any other useful info? I was checking pre-qual to see if I was approved for the secured; I had no luck previously and was shocked at the preapproval for the not-secured.

My college age kids both applied in Feb and were accepted. They both are AU on my DW's and my CC's, but the Discover was their first very own CC. They both got the Student Chrome, but the Student IT was another option.
- Pulled EQ for both
- Pre-qualified
- Both had EX FICO 8 scores of 737 at time of the app (didn't have a way to see EQ at that time)
- Youngest with $6000 income got a $1250 SL, oldest with $22,000 income got a $2000 SL.
I app'd in March for a Discover IT. It was my 3rd CC, one a CapOne QS and the other Care Credit (used debit card all these years).
- Pulled EQ
- Pre-qualified
- Had EQ FICO 8 score of 739 at app time
- Given $11,000 SL
- Have a BK7 from 2012 still on reports, aggregrate UTI was around 5% and most of that was on Care Credit which was at 9% UTI
Hope this helps, and good luck!
I think the bureau depends on which state you live in. Based on my reports Discover pulls from Experian here in Georgia - both hard and soft.
•Which bureau did Discover pull from for you? EX was pulled for app, but for all my CLI requests they soft pull TU

We get it, noone likes rejection even from Miss Disco....
Though at this point your very likely to be overthinking it, vacellating, and procrastinating.... You got this.... I'm like you in that I try to dust and polish the scores and check my house before i invite guests to the party.... =) (So waiting for stuff to report, and even possibly paying off some small balances and checking on utilization, and even pulling reports or waiting for reports to report ) ....
Unless there is something your not saying... (like theres some new baddie or you have a credit STD of some sort)... For the love of MyFico just take a leap of faith already.. you already have a safety cable....
