This book examines trends associated with and characteristics of college affinity card agreements; the extent of marketing for college affinity cards and college student credit cards; what is known about the effect of use of these cards on student credit card debt; the functions of college cards and the characteristics of schools and card providers offering the cards; and benefits and concerns regarding these cards.
