If you've managed to make it this far through your univeristy career without a credit card, I wouldn't be worried about interest rates. Carrying a balance is obviously a very bad idea if you can afford not to.
I assume you're getting a card to build your credit rating, in which case, get something with low interest obviously, but pay it off monthly (and then it won't cost you a thing). My interest rate is 18%, which I think is pretty standard for a no-fee Mastercard. (Through Mosaik/BMO)
