I suggested Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota and U of Wisconsin. We travel a lot to see family all
over the US and have let her travel on her own to go see friends out of state, etc. and I think we tired her out. ? She says she wants to stay close by.
@mod614 thank you, we are excited for him too, Happy school hunting! 
Eventually she will need to decide between computer science and computer engineering. Think hardware versus software. My son was an honors math major who finished the CS major when he overreached for grad schools. Taking a lot of higher math is useful- there was an article several years ago that discussed this. It made sense. Son ended up refining his programming skills in his first software development job and was recruited by a major player- called a software engineer. Asked him once about research- he prefers development. It is not just a matter of how intelligent a person is, interest also counts a lot.
Aside from distance and finances I recommend your D research the two fields and how they are handled at the various schools. Some put CS in engineering while others (eg UW-Madison) places it in the liberal arts (however named-L&S at UW) school/college. This can impact her ability to make changes in the major after entering a school. Some restrict numbers as well- it can be difficult to get in later.
Now is the time to create lists/charts regarding the two majors and various schools. She may find required and recommended courses vary and some whose requirements are more appealing. Learning the ins and outs of each major now will help her decide which she prefers.
She also needs to look at the total school. She will need to like the overall campus- physically and its culture. All people are more than just their major. Plus, she will continue to evolve throughout her college career and beyond.
I was hoping to pick your brain a little further if you don’t mind.
You had mentioned that Comp. Sci would be a better path in terms of opportunities, vs. Applied Math. She is still vacillating between the two. What do you think about Emory’s Quantitative Science Degree? It seems to combine math, statistics, and computer science. They have an Informatics track within that degree, I believe they aim to integrate Liberal Arts with Comp. Sci.
How do you feel about the math dept at GA Tech vs. Emory?
Thank you!
@mod614 Research-wise, GA Tech is known to have a more prestigious math department than Emory. For undergrad, I don’t know if it makes a big difference. Emory has a BS in Math/CS - is that a double major? Something to look into. For all things in cs/engrg, GA Tech has the better reputation. But Emory may have a different vibe overall. Since she can already place out of Calc 1,2 ,3 and linear algebra, she’ll have enough space to take courses that interest her in data science and/or another field like business or public health.
Interdisciplinary majors with data science are the new shiny objects of academia. My main issue with these types of majors is that they often lack the larger number of courses in the advanced areas of CS or math - those that are often required in the regular majors. Looking at the course list, one could take those even as a CS major or math major. I do not know if this program is known to have some specific cachet. Log into linkedin and search for Emory quantitative science degree and see if you come up with recent interns/grads and where they ended up. And contact their undergrad dept to see what recent majors have done.
