I didn't think student loans were supposed to have such a negative effect on my credit score, but they're being counted as "new credit accounts" and "credit accounts with balances". Why is this? They are installment loans, not "credit accounts", so why are they being treated as such?Will consolidating those Sallie Mae loans help any? Part of the derogatory information on my credit report is that I have 13 active "credit accounts"...that's 3 credit cards and 10 different Sallie Mae student loans.Any suggestions? I'd really appreciate them!
