The birthday love for Maddox comes amid news that the eldest of Jolie and Brad Pitt's children -- who also include Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 13, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 11 -- is heading off to college this fall.
A source told ET that Maddox will attend South Korea's Yonsei University, where he will study biochemistry. The source added that Maddox was accepted into other universities, but chose Yonsei and has been studying the Korean language to prepare.
An additional source told ET that Maddox's 18th birthday was "a huge milestone" for Jolie.
"She loves him and is so proud of how wise he is beyond his years. She has encouraged him to travel nonstop, to learn many languages, and now has plans for him to go to university overseas," the source said. "Maddox is very attached to his mom. She's always stood by him."
