They're both correct depending on what you want to say. And this is a very general question.

Don't is a contraction of do not; this is negation in the present.
Won't is a contraction of will not; this is negation in the future.

I do not come to college. = I do not physically go to the campus of the college.
I will not come to college. = I will not physically go to the campus of the college.

If you want to say something about attending college, you need to use "go to college".

I will not go to college. = I am not going to attend college.
I do not go to college. = I do not attend college. I am not a college student.
 
than you so much:up:
 
Also, I won't go to college could be used when someone refuses to go to college any longer.
