I would check whether she can combine astrophysics with a CS or data science minor - a lot of higher level astrophysics involves math&CS nowadays.
Astrophysics means a PHD which (if worth doing) will be fully funded. It implies a higher GPA and solid research, with if possible article publication as a 4th or 5th author (or better) and/or conference presentation and/or post graduate fellowships. Honors college advising&opportunities would be of great importance - did she get into honors anywhere (or when will you know?)
