How does an 18-year old receive a credit card with no credit history?

I have recently turned 18 and am very frustrated with constant rejection from credit card companies. Whenever I apply, I always receive a rejection letter replying with the same denial statement "Few revolving...or...not enough accounts opened long enough to establish credit history". It's just a vicious cycle... I can't get a credit card unless I have SOME credit, but I can't build any credit unless I have a credit card! can anyone shed some light on this subject...PLEASE?!?
 
Do you have a good job / savings history?

Every time you apply for a card, it goes as a mark on your credit history, so some banks might be rejecting you because you have made so many applications
 
try sears i used to get people who just turned 18 and look at mastercard online they have a few
