I'm not sure if they build credit or not, but you could look into a secure credit card. If not, what you could do with a credit card is take it out just to use on like 1 or 2 things a month, and as soon as you go out and buy the thing w/ the cc, go straight online and pay it off, so you keep a 0 balance.
Loans, cell phones, etc help.
I'm only 22 and I've got like a 725ish credit score.
Oh, and just so you know, everytime someone pulls up your credit score (applying for a cc, loan, etc) your credit score will go down. I don't know why, but just because you look at it, it does.
