I think the credit union would be your best bet. Find a family member who already belongs to one to make it a little easier. Good luck.
Well, you establish credit by getting a credit card or paying a phone bill, cable bill, rent, whatever. Everyone should have a credit card at 18. Just be responsible with it.
