Credit score is not the only item reviewed when underwriting a bond. Therefore, if there are other items (e.g. Bankruptcy) that make you a "higher risk", an increase in credit score will not get you into a lower rate program. However, if your credit score is the only factor that puts you into the high risk program then you most certainly can be placed in a program with a lower rate at renewal time.
If you know your credit score has increased, your best bet is to contact your agent a couple of months prior to the renewal date to see if he/she can place it in a standard market.
