@Larry – Thanks fo much for reading and commenting. Everyone’s situation is different and we can’t predict how certain activity would impact your credit score, but if you’re taking a loan out in your name, it will appear on your credit history. Good rule of thumb if you’re thinking about co-signing for loans or taking out loans for your children: If you’re asked for your social security number and your name is on the application, the loan will most likely appear on your credit report.

I plan to take out a Parent Plus Loan for my Son’s education. Will this change my debt to income ratio and ultimately my credit score?
