These inquiries account for about 3 points each if you have any and are typically the easiest thing to dispute and have removed by the bureaus. Your inquiries can be found at the end of each of your reports. Please keep in mind that the inquiries that are not shown to anyone else should be left alone as they do not affect your score. You want to address the inquiries that impact your score (the report will clearly let you know which ones affect your score in the caption before the listing of those inquiries). You can dispute these inquiries by listing them in a letter to each of the bureaus and asking that they be removed. Here are the credit bureaus' addresses if you are interested: Equifax PO Box 740256 Atlanta, GA 30374 TransUnion P Box 2000 Chester, PA 19022 Experian PO Box 2002 Allen, TX 75013 Hope this helps! As for paying on your student loans, if you get your total balance owed low enough this could help, but I do know that deleting inquiries from your reports is a quick way to boost your score, especially if the inquiries were not authorized or are outdated.

So if you pay the entire amount off the bureaus will not have access to it right away.

Paying off installment loans really doesn't increase your score. Installment loans are a different category and are calculated into your score differently. There really isn't any other way to get a quick increase. Your score can fluxuate more than 4 points from one day to the next based on when creditors update to the credit bureau.

It's a great score booster. Not sure about paying down student loan debt, but I would imagine the principle is the same. If you can, pay off all existing balances on every credit card that you have.
