Child support should continue until the child is 18 or emancipated. There are exceptions that you should continue to pay if the child is still in high school, but those exceptions don't apply to college.
However you should go back and check any paperwork you signed. If years ago you agreed to pay child support while she was in college, they will hold you to that agreement.
You should use lawyers.com to find a local attorney that can best advise you as to how to stop payments.
