2003 Nissan Sentra will not start

My Sentra won't start. It has a new battery, lights, radio turn on but when I turn the ignition key, it just click, I am suspecting it's the starter. I am right? Thanks for any help.

Could be a loose hot or ground cable also check your connections and if they are good see about getting the starter tested.

Check battery and starter connections. Tap on starter while having someone try to start car (don't hit eletrical connections).

I fixed it, as suggested I checked out the battery terminals, found some corrosion, sprayed battery terminal cleaner and cleaned it out. One click on the ignition key and car started right away. Thanks.
