A credit score is a number between 300 and 850 that credit bureaus use to predict a borrower's creditworthiness, or how likely someone is to repay their debts. Lenders or creditors use this score to decide how safe it is to lend that person the money they are requesting. 
 
 A credit score is determined by the three leading credit bureaus, TransUnion, Equifax and Experian. Creditors report information to them such as credit limits, number of accounts and whether the accounts are paid on time. Each agency keeps its own records so a score can vary from bureau to bureau. For a mortgage loan, generally the average of the 3 scores is used.
