Approved Bank of America!

Hey guys to start of I am a Junior in college and began my credit jorney in December.  I got the Discover it chrome for students in December with SL 500. Two months ago I got it to 1000 limit. Two weeks ago I got the Capital one journey Card with SL of 300. I also got the Bank of America card the other day with 500 Limit. It was not a instant approval, but ill take it.  I needed a visa as most places dont except discover. I know three cards is a lot for a college kid, but my intentions is to have them forver and grow together and eventually upgrade the Cap to to QS. I also have a Credit builder loan with Self Lender to help ( Current balance 465). I know my habits wont change at all. Ill still pay everything on time and down to under 20 bucks on each card. I should get my First Fico scores next month. So my question is how will my scores go up while im in college if I continue what im doing. I dont know if this goes here. Any advice is welcome and aprricated on how to move forward. Thank you guys for helping me get my journey  started!

You're on the right track and have some great cards that will grow. Let your goal be to PIF 2 of your CCs every month and only 1 report a balance of <9%. Good luck to you.
