Thanks alot for the reply. as im a student with very little credit, united mileage plus has turned me down many times. (I tried to get the regular card, not the student, and i knew my chances would be low) 2 bucks for 1 mile seems rotten and no signup bonus... the lufthansa card seems better as i get a bonus, and they seem to be accepting of students... 1 mile for 1 dollar and a signup bonus.... i like that... any other opinions?

i signed up for lufthansa.. i could only find the card with a 60 dollar fee, but thanks to your link...
