Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

My divorce decree states that I am responsible for Child Support for 4 years after high school graduation assuming my child attends college. She has spent 2 and a half years getting her Associated Degree and will be taking (at least) a semester off before POSSIBLY returning to school to complete her 4 year degree. Am I required to continue my payments seeing as how she has 'gone to college' but didn't spend 4 years doing it? (If it has an baring on things, she will be 21 in March of next year - 3 months after graduation from county college).
