How these results work
Everything you add to your profile is evidence: each ranked goal adds weight toward the methods it genuinely fits — your #1 counts most, #2 half, #3 a third — debt-profile picks sharpen it, and hard lines hide methods entirely, with the reason stated.
Approval odds are scored separately from fit, so a great-fit option with a credit hurdle stays visible instead of vanishing — and the last-resort options appear with their warnings attached rather than being hidden.
Educational tool — not credit counseling, debt-relief, or legal advice. For one-on-one help, a nonprofit credit counselor (NFCC or FCAA member) is free or low-cost; talk to one before signing anything with a for-profit debt-relief company.

Educational only — not credit counseling, debt-relief, or legal advice. Numbers shown are typical ranges, not offers. A nonprofit credit counselor (NFCC/FCAA member) is the right first call for hands-on help. Scores are computed in your browser; answers are saved to your account only if you sign in.
