FICO is a type of credit score. Applying for credit often causes FICO to drop. Not paying your bills causes your FICO to drop. Having high credit card balances causes FICO to drop. In general, good credit behavior like paying on time, having small balances, and not frequently applying for new loans and credit cards all help raise FICO.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

increase FICO by A) applying LESS frequently. IF you sign up for new loans every week, your FICO will drop like a rock.
