@snowjewelz: Yea, they don't tell you outright, but you can always ask them and they have to tell you. I did when I was on the phone with the lender. A few days later, they also mailed me the report they pulled with my score on it.

yes, only because we're in the early stages of buying a house. otherwise i'd be going off the last time i checked it (when we bought a car), which was a couple of years ago.
