How will not claiming a dependent affect my refund?

She's a college student. We also have four other dependents. She has no insurance. We've had our state's medical assistance, but due to her being an adult (20), she had to have her own application - but she's also connected to our family application.

Because we claim her as a dependent, our income is combined with her income for her application for medical assistance. This puts her over the income limit.

We want her to have coverage, but we also want to know how not claiming her will affect our refund. (And her financial aid as well.)

Her annual income is about $6,000.
