Raise Your Credit Score

Raise Your Credit Score

Lenders use credit scores to determine how likely a borrower is to default on a loan. Credit scores typically range from 300 to 850. Borrowers with higher scores generally receive the most favorable rates and terms. Help ensure your access to credit by following a few simple rules.


  • Make loan payments on time.

  • Stay below your credit limit.

  • Keep your older cards. The length of your credit history is one factor used in determining your score.

  • Don’t close accounts. That can result in having less credit available, which can hurt your score.

  • Avoid opening several new accounts within a short period of time.

  • Consider allowing credit bureaus to add utility and telecommunications payments to flesh out your credit report.

  • Monitor your credit reports from the three major credit bureaus: Experian, TransUnion and Equifax.

  • Check whether your financial institution or credit card company provides your credit score along with your account information.
