<prompt> Human: So I applied for a discover student card and they recommended me to apply for a joint account. I got a job 3 months ago and got my SSN a week ago. I earn around 500 a month during a college semester. I am an international student and have no credit history in USA whatsoever. Can anyone tell me why I got rejected?Edit: Once you get rejected, what is the process to re-apply?Edit: Just got rejected for a Citi card too.Assistant: Probably because there is no information on you for them to run, especially since you are internationalHuman: So what do you recommend I do?  <response>: Get a secured credit card. This means you give them money, usually 300 to start, and you get a card with a 300 limit. Use it responsibly and you will soon be able to switch it to a regular credit card andor apply for another card. You will get your money back. I used opensky when my credit was trash and I had a good experience, but others might have a better recommendation.
