Yes, you are going to have to go back to court and file a Complaint for Modification. The Court will review the divorce agreement as to the terms regarding payment of undergraduate education and look at both parties ability to pay. You should consult with a local attorney to find out what the likely outcome will be based on the financial position of both parties.
