the easiest way for you to start credit will be by applying for a credit card one that helps people with no credit this cards are good to start with but not to keep I would get one of these cards use it for a few months to build credit then apply for a better card and drop the firs one, check out www.fastcreditcardapprovals.com and go under poor or no credit section.

You cannot have a good credit score if you have no credit history.
Your credit score is basically your "grade" for having done good work for a long time. If you haven't done any work, then you haven't earned any grade yet.

It's a gradual process, so you need to start slowly and build your way up carefully.
Apply for a no-fee credit card that gives you some sort of reward - cash back, airline miles, whatever you're likely to use. Then comes the most important part - **pay this card in full on time every single month, without exception.** Never spend frivolously or more than you can afford. Credit card companies may seem friendly, like you can carry a balance as long as you like, but this ain't free money - the interest charges will come on like gangbusters and break your financial kneecaps.
Using a credit card responsibly, within your budget, is a terrific way to build a good credit history and earn a good credit score; using it rashly is the quickest way to destroy your credit.

You need to get a credit card, at least one and start buying things on them. It helps your rating by paying things off on time. This shows good credit. For the short amount of time, that is all you can do.

Get a low limit credit card through your bank.
Use it every month, but pay the balance completely and on time.

Keep doing that and your score will slowly improve. You are unlikely to get a "good credit score" by June no matter what you do.

Below is a great article on helping you establish credit.

http://ishouldknowthis.com/2008/01/31/how-to-establish-good-credit-and-keep-it.aspx

Getting a credit card is a great thing to do if you use it responsibly.

If you are having trouble getting a credit card going to the bank is the best. That's where I got my first card. Later, when you've established good credit you can go and reapply for a card that will give you more rewards and better interest rate.

Get a credit card, use it a few times a month, and pay it off every other time, and 3/4 the other half. Every two months call the credit card company and ask for credit line increase. Correct errors on your credit report. Your report must prove to the lender that he will get his money back.

Some retail and gasoline credit cards are not revolving (do not carry a monthly balance) and sometimes are easier to obtain than regular cards. Over time they can help establish history. If you don't have a checking account, open one. You have very little credibility with lenders if you don't have at least a checking account and preferably a savings account as well. Just as importantly, be sure not to overdraw your bank account. Bouncing checks sends a signal to potential lenders that you can't manage your daily finances and are therefore not a good credit risk.

With careful planning and a little knowledge of how lenders issue credit, you CAN establish a credit history fairly painlessly. There are many businesses waiting in line to take advantage of you by charging exorbitant fees or interest rates, so be careful out there.

First, get a credit card... even a secured one, perhaps from Capital One if necessary, but try your bank first.

Use it every month... but never charge more than 20% on it. If you do charge more pay it before the billing date as the amount billed is what will be reported to the credit bureau even if you pay it in full every month.

DO pay it in full every month.

Next, go to the bank for a small RRSP loan and pay it off over 2 years.

Credit scoring depends on payment history, the types of credit you have, how often you apply for credit, and how much of your available credit you use.

Take these two steps and you will have good credit in no time. Just be cautious with your credit usage as you can go seriously overboard and if you misuse your credit it will haunt you for years to come.

You can use credit cards.
http://credcards.noneto.com - try this one. I personally use it. This card is also very good to build credit rating.
Just take credit and pay it in time, and your credit score will grow.
