Classroom Credit Card Application
Students may apply for credit in my classroom. Students first complete this credit card application. Answers to questions listed on the credit card application should be answered honestly by the student. I determine a student’s approval based on savings vs. spending habits and the amount of cash currently in the student’s wallet. If students have over $10, are employed for the week, and circle “homeowner” then they are approved for credit. If denied, students can always reapply at a later date.
