Suggestion from a working software developer: Don’t look for CS schools specifically based on their HGI or “front end” programs. Look for good, solid CS programs at schools that are great fits for her. It’s important for her to be in a place that will suit her academic and social strengths, but in addition, she should go in to CS with an open mind about the field as a whole. She may discover her passion in some other specialty which she hasn’t yet been exposed to yet. Employers value new grads who are solidly grounded in the full stack. If she really does want to focus on front end, there will be tons of opportunities for her to do so.
