5 What are Credit Scores? The Fair Isaac Corporation developed a scoring model that calculates the credit score which is used by the 3 major credit bureaus Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion A credit score is a number lenders use to help them decide: If I give this person a loan or credit card, how likely is it that I will get paid back on time?
6 What Are Credit Scores? A credit score is a 3-digit number that ranges approximately from a low of 300 points to a high of 850 points The higher the score, the lower the risk! The higher the score, the lower the interest rate! The lower the interest rate, the more money you save! Source: Fair Isaac Corporation:
7 What Are Credit Scores? A credit score is a snapshot of your credit risk at a particular point in time Your score can change whenever your credit report changes Changes generally appear on the credit report within 3 months Source: Fair Isaac Corporation:
8 What Are Credit Scores? For a score to be calculated, your credit report must: Contain at least one account that has been open for six months or more At least one account that has been updated in the past six months Source: Fair Isaac Corporation:
9 What are Credit Scores? Scores may differ with each agency due to: The timeframe in which information is recorded on the credit reports by the bureaus The way lenders and businesses report information to the credit reporting agencies The agencies may also record the same information in different ways Source: Fair Isaac Corporation:

19 What Impacts A Credit Score? New Credit Understanding New Credit (Inquiries and New Lines) Hard inquiries when you ask for new credit can drop your score 5 points for 12 months Voluntary inquiries made by you don t affect score Involuntary inquiries don t affect score (Inquiries made by creditors without your authorization for example: Pre-approved credit cards) Alike inquiries count as one inquiry (Autos or mortgages within a 30 to 45 day period) Opening a new credit line can drop your score 10 points for 12 months Source: Fair Isaac Corporation:
20 What Impacts A Credit Score? Age and Mix Age of Trade Lines The scoring system rewards you for a longer credit history and higher average age of lines. Mix of Types of Credit The scoring system rewards you for having multiple kinds of credit. Having both revolving and installment loans will help your score. Source: Fair Isaac Corporation:
