2. less people will join rather than if it's just a free site/email registration

Your target audience is fine. What 18-20 year old doesn't have a CC? I have 3, every one of my friends has at least 1. When you have a CC, "not having money" very rarely happens, especially for a college student who is usually an impulse buyer.
Yes, less people will join. So what? Those free site members probably won't make you as much money.
Why not incorporate both of your ideas? Make the paysite, but if they don't join, give them the option to join your free site. In your free site, push the paysite heavily.
