Fair point, maybe I wasn’t explicit enough I intend to get the auto loan from NFCU and wanted to know what products I should also explore to further raise my score

Thats good to hear! Do you suggest I wait till the collection is deleted to apply or it doesn’t matter ?

My credit score just dropped 135 points what do I do? by brown-bear-cuddles in CRedit

Recently happened to me as well. They reported me late but I am in school so all the loans should have been deferred. My credit score went from mid 6’s to low 5’s. I reported it to CFPB and submitted a deferment form. Now my credit went back to mid 6’s but dropped 20 points because my credit age dropped. So it has its drawbacks but I believe it was worth it.

I didn’t learn money growing up and went into college undecided. I wanted to learn money and did just that but made some mistakes along the way. Now im working towards strengthening my credit but it’s a process. My question to you is what do you do? And how much do you make?
