    Default Do I have a good chance? Bofa Travel Rewards

    I'm looking to get the Bofa Travel Rewards but my credit history is limited, was wondering what you guys think of my chances:
    AAoA - 1.7yr
    Amex BCP - 6k (1yr)
    Crap One - 750 (2yrs)
    Car Loan - 20k (1.5yr)
    Credit Util: 10%
    Always paid in full, never carried a balance.
    No baddies
    EQ - 725
    TU - 721
    EX - 721

    Thanks!

    Amex Zync - NPSL (Cleared up to 25k)
    Amex BCE - 6000 limit
    FIA Rewards Amex- 2500 limit
    Chase Freedom - 2000 limit
    BoA Cash Rewards Privileges- 3000 limit
    Discover IT- 3500 limit
    20 years old with alot of life to spend
    Its not about the ending, its about the journey
    just as long as the ending is just as good

    Youc ould use their pre-qualify tool. I did that and it said I was 'pre-approved' for 3 of their cards, I applied for one, got the 7-10 day message, and the card reported on my reports before I even heard back from them, I'd say about 10 days to 2 weeks later.
