Pros

Normally, users can earn 1% cash back on all purchases they make, and Capital One will reward users with a 25% bonus on earned cash back each month they make payments on time. Plus, the card charges no annual fee or foreign transaction fees. Your card is under fraud coverage in case it's lost or stolen.

Cons

The interest rate is fixed at 20.99%, which is almost twice as high as other student credit cards. Also, you may also be given a credit limit as low as $300 based on your credit profile.

Summary

With its 25% cash back bonus, it's a great card for students who pay on time. However, if you cannot make your payment on time, the high-interest rate will cost you a lot of money.
