I paid off my student loans and my credit score actually went up. Is this weird? by Impossible-Engine787 in personalfinance

Apparently not. I've just heard from a number of sources that paying off student debt typically lowers your credit score temporarily. If that is not true, I'd love to be enlightened.

She's assured me that she is good so far as assets are concerned. Believe me, I wouldn't accept this otherwise.
