Only recently employed for a week, can i get a credit card? which one?

Hi
I'm at uni in leeds but my tuition fee loan for last year has messed up i need 2 grand to pay the university so they can enrol me for this year.
I'm trying to get a credit card so i can pay this off quick but have only been employed a week,
are there any credit cards which arent fussy if you havent been in employent longer than 3 months..?
Thanks ppl

    Sorry, but I can't think of any card that will give you a balance of 2k with a recently started job, a uni course and no other income.

    You MAY be lucky and get a sub-prime card but the limit will be between 250 and 500 at best.
