Will My Security Clearance Be Denied? – james

I have about a little over $3,000 in debt with no established credit history. I do intend to pay off this debt in time. About $2,000 worth of the total debt is owed to the Dept. of Education. I don’t think this is substancial enough to matter just would like some input. Thanks!
