To the letter of the law, until they reach 18 years or 19 years in full time education. This is how the CSA would play it.

Again, strictly speaking, a child at university could seek ancillary relief proceedings agains the 'absent' parent whilst they are at university to get financial support.

In practice, most absent parents tend to come to a private arrangement with their children when they are at university.

Hope it helps
