Student Visa

MCT's Student Visa starts out with a low $250 limit, which is enough to buy the books and supplies you need, plus the CDs and clothes you probably don’t, without allowing you to go overboard. And it helps you establish a good credit history, which you’ll need to get more loans in the future. To help you manage your account, we offer a "Using Credit Wisely" tutorial to teach you the basics of proper credit card use.
 

Our Student VISA offers:

  • No annual fee
  • A low fixed rate
  • Credit limits ranging from $250 to $500
  • No rate hikes for late payments
  • A complimentary booklet on how to use credit
  • Approaching credit limit notice: receive an email when your available credit is less than 5% on your Visa card

Special Note: A parent or guardian’s signature is required for members under 18 years of age to apply for a loan.

Protect your Visa card online with a personal password. Visa provides reassurance that only you can use your Visa card online. Learn more about the benefits of Verified by Visa.


When traveling out of the country -  Prior to traveling out of the country, please let MCT know which countries you will be visiting and the dates. We will place a memo on your account, which will prevent your Visa Check Card and Visa Card from possibly being blocked due to unusual activity in those countries.
