Will my age be a factor in getting approved for surgery?

I have been seriously looking into WLS for almost seven months now and I was wondering if anyone has had problems getting approved due to their age. I am only 21 years old, but have had a weight problem my whole life. I am currently 300 pounds and need some support.
