WHAT IS A CREDIT SCORE?• A credit score is a number that helps a lender
predict how likely an individual is to repay a loan, or make credit payments on time.
• A credit score is a number that changes as the elements in a credit report change.
• A credit score has broad use and impact. Your credit past is your credit future.
• FICO® scores, one of the most common credit scoring systems, vary between 350 and 850.
• VantageScoreSM, a new credit scoring system developed by the three credit bureaus, ranges from 501-990.
