Does college tuition count as child support?

Child support must be paid as set forth in the child support order. In many cases, college tuition is addressed separately as per agreement or part of a court order. If it is not, the obligor cannot choose to pay some other expense and then deduct it from the amount owed for child support. The obligee must pay the child support amount to the custodial parent unless the parties have an agreement in writing that provides otherwise. You should review the child support order and any agreements that were entered by the court in your case.
