Tell me about it :D

So here's the deal.  My husband's daughter is in the college application process.  If all goes normally she will begin college at the age of 17, and turn 18 in the middle of her freshman year.  My husband's divorce in NJ states that he will pay child support to his ex-wife throughout their daughter's college enrollment.  This is on top of her college expenses, which we will also assist in meeting.   Now his ex-wife is questioning whether their daughter has the maturity to go to college and is suggesting that she might want to take a year off before applying.  

Assuming for the moment that this plan happens, what would that mean for child support?  If my stepdaughter turned 18 without being enrolled in college, would that make her emancipated, or would it just add another year of child support?

Thanks for any insight you can offer.
