Assuming the term "consent" refers to a person no longer being under parental control and/or entering into legal contracts, marriage and so forth, in most states the age would be 18. In Alabama and Nebraska it is 19, in Mississippi and Pennsylvania it is 21. Some states have laws that will allow a minor to petition for early emancipation.
