Thanks! I’m glad my post is informative.
I used the free Credit Karma to check my score and it couldn’t give me one because I have a “thin file”. Also, when I received the denial letters for the unsecured credit cards (since creditors have to state denial reasons and may also provide you with the score as well), all of them said my score was unavailable. After browsing around for more information, I found out that FICO scores are only generated when you have at least 6 months of credit history.
