Yes as they are still a member of your household even if they do not have a vehicle with them at school they do come home at times and I'm sure they drive sometimes while they are at home. If they are at school over 150 miles away and don't have a vehicle with them then many insurance companies will give a substantial discount since they don't drive as much. The discount is around 50% or the normal rate for the student.

If your child is covered under your insurance while in college, the coverage probably ends in the month that the child graduates.

You should check with your insurance agent (or the actual policy if you have it) to be sure of the ending date of your graduate's coverage.

Protect Your Child at College with Student Health Insurance?

Do you have a child that is going away to college or is currently a student at a university? If so, your child may no longer be covered under your health insurance policy. Check with your provider when your child turns 18 to see if your child is still covered under your health insurance plan, as many health care providers consider the age of 18 as an adult. If you need to purchase health care coverage for your child, ask the college if they offer student health insurance. Most colleges offer insurance to students at a very reasonable rate.


Do you have to add your child to your car insurance if your child moves out of state for college?

Can you keep the health insurance you get from your parents if you get married?

It depends on the insurance company, but I personally have never known of a company that would allow a parent to continue to carry insurance on a child after that child married, because at that point, you are no longer a 'dependant' of your parents.
