Default What is the best credit card for a college student?

What's the best credit card for a college student? What does is a finance charge actually? What is a defualt and cash advance apr. I've never had a credit card, but I want one to build credit. What is the best credit card with the lowest rates I can get?
Sorry about all the questions. lol I just want to be sure before I pick one.
I'm afraid that once I get out of school in about 6 -9 months that I won't be able to get any credit for things I need. I can't really afford to pay much of my tutuion fees right now maybe 30 a month. I just want to buy my daily expenses with the card and pay them off right after.
I have an account with chase right now, but the numbers that go with their card scare me. lol

This is chase:

There are lots of credit cards out now. It's very difficult to choose right one which suits your profile. But that's just few clicks away. You can compare credit cards to know which one is right for you.
