How do i set up a Student Checking account online for a 16 year old with Bank of America?

Question

Im the 16 year old wanting to set one up. I have all my information and a parent to be a co applicant or whatever, but i dont know which type of checking account is available for a 16 year old. I want no monthly minimum, and a check card. Bank of America has always been my prefered bank, so id like to stick with it. 10 points for thr right link...

Answer 1

Just sign up for a campus edge checking account, and have your parent as the co-applicant. If that doesn't work, you will just have to go into the bank branch and open an account that way (make sure your parent is with you). Also, your parent has to have an account with BofA.

You could also have your parent open an account, and add you as an authorized user, so you will get a check card, and have access to the funds.
