It will hurt your score. Try to keep all cards below 35% of each card's maximum limit. 35% is the magic number that lenders like to see you under. If you consolidate everything to one card, that brings the card above 35%. If that one card is a very low interest rate compared to the others, you have to make the choice: - pay less interest but take a credit score hit - pay more interest but keep all the cards below 35% If you are planning to ask for a loan soon, I'd keep them all distributed evenly. If you aren't going to need a loan soon, I'd consolidate and work hard to pay that card off quickly.
