Will I loose my parents health insurance if I fail one of my college courses?

All too soon I'm going under the knife and I'm worried to death that me failing my online english will cause me to loose my parent's health insurance. Does anyone know if I will or not?

I can only speak for California, but to answer your question. Insurance companies look at dependents aged 18 - usually 25 as over-age dependents and will allow them to remain on the parents policy IF they are enrolled as a full-time student at an accredited college or university (CA says 12 units). They don't care if you fail or not, just maintain your units and you can remain on the plan.
