It doesn't.
Something else caused the score to jump.
It could be that your overall utilization went down as a result of having 9 new accounts with presumably 0 balances.
@Murph5065 Honestly, a more indepth and detailed explanation and review of your profile is needed to determine which changing factor caused the increase.
Even then with an understanding of the Scoring Primer, you will have many other changes in the near future with the other 8 accounts populating onto your CRA reports.
I would say attempting to wait and see how these various changes shake out over the next week or two.
At the least, in the long term, adding many account all at once with the intention of keeping them open as long as possible, you could affect your AAoA in such a positive way that years done the line when adding a newer account once in a while will not dramatically drop the AAoA scoring factor thus retaining more FICO points.
All of the being a given, I have no idea what your current average age of accounts is but I would to say...
Congratulations on your many approvals!
