There are so many ways to increase you score. One easy way is called piggy backing. If anyone you know (family, friend, girlfriend) has good credit that has credit cards, they can easily add you on as an authorized user without even giving you a card so you can reap the benefits of their good credit to boost yours. we do this for our kids to start them out on the right track. Another easy way is to get a secured CC. Put any amount down and they'll match it with a CC.
