kahill1918,

The older your credit hisory the better your credit. Now, you will want to make sure that you are paying any annual fees etc associated with those accounts so they stay postitive but, I would keep them. If any one account has a really nasty annual fee I would wait until the account expires, then close it. Just as long as you have an account thats just as old to keep up that history. BTW, often when you call CC and tell them why you want to cancel they will upgrade your account to keep you as a customer. This often gets rid of nasty fees and intrest rates.
