If the Amazon visa makes a lot more sense, then go for the Amazon visa. Apply for what you need and you'll end up using that card most, which in turns benefits you most.
I applied for an Amazon card because most of my purchases are on Amazon. I'm the typical person who showrooms at Best Buy only to buy at Amazon later.
If I am not wrong there's a quarter where you get 5% back for restaurants for Freedom, and Sept-Dec 5% for Amazon.
So it is really up to you which card you want.
When I applied for the Amazon visa, I greatly regretted it initally and kept trying to get a product change to Freedom. I was told I need to wait a year.
It's been almost 2 years now but I decided to keep the Amazon visa anyways because I realize I am buying a lot of stuff from Amazon each month, not just at the end of each year. The prices and most importantly customer service at Amazon is what always made me a loyal customer to them.
You could get the Amazon visa now, and apply for a freedom few months down the road, and a CSP when you graduate. Who says you can't have all 3?

I do the same thing with you as far as checking in best buy and buying on Amazon! I was in the market for a TV and found a killer deal on a 47" LG 3D TV on Amazon (never considered 3D but this was so good to the point that I'd be stupid to spend maybe $50 less to not have 3D), so I went to Best Buy to check it out. It was awesome as expected, went home that night and overnighted it for $3.99 with my Amazon Prime.
