He can go anywhere, but the law in CT says the court can order only an amount up to the cost of an in-state student at UCONN at Storrs, after accounting for loans, grants and scholarships. So, if he goes to Princeton, they can make you pay only for UCONN.

He can go anywhere. However, you both have to testify that if you were an intact family, you would have paid for all or a portion of his college.
