Your “Length of Credit History” is considered when calculating your score. It’s not an overall calculation of how long you’ve had credit, rather a look at each individual account.
If you’re thinking of cancelling a credit card or a revolving account, think twice. Be certain that it’s absolutely necessary. Doing so will lower your score. Why? Because according to the bureaus, you’re lowering the average length for all accounts.
