If I pay off a high interest school loan with a low interest credit card will it hurt my credit score as my revolving debt to credit ratio increases?
Depends on your credit card limit. You will wont to keep your utlization under 20% -30%. or it will effect your credit!

It won't matter if the OP doesn't plan on applying for credit during that time but yes, don't go max out a credit card for that.
Personally, I'd say it depends on how much you owe as credit card companies can be unreliable. They might change the terms of your card overnight and for no reason etc. I'd do it only if I knew I would be able to pay off the balance fast but again, OP, how much are you talking about?
