I don't know if any other "University" cards are getting this good of a deal, but I received this via e-mail, and it doesn't appear targeted as to who can apply.

The gist of the offer is 25,000 Rewards points which can be redeemed for $250 Cash... which for a BOA card, and for only spending $250 on the card is pretty sweet deal... And even better for those Iowa Hawkeye fans!!!

The BT offer is not capped, so thats not hot at all...

Apply Here

You will click on either one of the credit cards, and the 25,000 point offer will appeer.

Here is what the e-mail said...

Thanks for that clarification... when I was looking at the "fine" print I didn't see that $250 purchase requirement, but still easy to do.

Where will these 25,000 Rewards points get posted and how do you redeem them for cash? Is it Bank of America who is going to send me a check or will it come from Iowa Rewards? How easy to deal with are these Iowa Rewards?

I'm glad others are jumping on this... I missed out on the Chase $250 because I had applied for a Chase Business Card 90 days prior... arghh...

And for those who don't want to apply via the link, you can use the toll free number too..

and BTW it pulled from Experian for me.
