Yes, under very limited circumstances if the child is handicapped or stipulated in a divorce decree. Also, while searching http://411newyork.org earlier today, I see that in New York, courts may order parents to pay a child's present or future educational expenses, including for post-secondary or education enrichment programs. The court must consider the circumstances of each party and the child's best interests. Orders may specify that payment go directly to the school (N. Y. Dom. Rel. Law § 240(1-b)(c)(7)).

Yes, depending on state law and if the child is handicap, but it should come from both parents. See link
This depends on the specific state laws, and/or the wording in a child support order.
see link below for list of state laws
If no terms were specified in the support agreement, child support usually ends at the state's "age of majority" which in most states is 18 and some 21 years old.
No and it's usually paid until 18 but the states usually have a way to prolong it until the child is 21-24 and finish college. You have to go back to court to end it.
