So long as you're a full time college student dependent on them.
Insurance companies wont mess around, you must be a full time student, and they usually require a copy of your transcript every semester as proof.
But so long as you are, you're covered. |

Depending on the plan, it may or may not be true. Here's some possible senarios:
1. You might be covered until the end of the month after you turn 18, or the end of this year.
2. You might be covered until you're 19
3. You might be covered until you're 23 - as long as you provide documentation every semester that you're a full-time college student
Your parents need to call their plan and find out which case of the above applies to you specifically. |

Every insurance company is different. The easiest way to find out the correct answer is to call you parents insurance company and ask them.
Who put this idea in your head? Was it your parents or a friend? If it's your parents, they might be planning to drop you and just decided to tell you that it was because you're going to be 18. |

Usually if you're a full time college student, you have until the age of 22 or 23. |

In Arizona, Blue Cross Blue Shield recently changed the guidelines regarding dependents. A dependent may stay on the parents policy up to the age of 30, and they do not have to be a full-time student. One of the largest segments of society uninsured, 18-34 years of age, this underwriting policy change will hopefully address the issue to some degree. |

As long as you're a full time college student (12-18 units) your parents insurance should cover you until about 23-25. (this depends on the insurance company.) They will have to prove this every year at open enrollment. |

Depending on your state. In Texas, it is 23. You should be ok for now. What you need to watch out for is after graduation, you may need to take out temporay health insurance until you find a job.
If you somehow are diagnosed with cancer, etc in the mean time or they can prove you had it without constant coverage for 60 to 90 days, you will be denied. |
