I think she's trying to emotionally blackmail you into paying for the college education. She sounds like she needs to take finacial responsibility for herself.

A lot of colleges have payment plans for "non-traditional" students (don't know exactly what that means, but it can mean that you haven't been to college for some time, I suppose.). My friend Steve, who's 28, is looking to go back to college for a psychology degree, and he seems to qualify for one of the ones here in Georgia. Maybe some of the colleges your daughter is interested in has that?

I would be firm, but gentle with her in explaining that you aren't going to pay for her college. I agree with the person who recommended you ask her why she thinks you have to pay for it.
