Musicamusica and a few others know a lot about VP. From my own point of view, your daughter is getting bad advice. Does SJSU have many VP grads who do go on to grad school or performance or a life in music in general?
I think, and this is me (with a daughter in a PhD music program now) that she is fine focusing on what she loves, music and singing. I think she should stop worrying about career right now. Certainly build experience (and resume) in the field, and it’s fine to intern for a few hours a week, something like that, but I even think she should stop working, if your family can afford it.
Many of our kids tried for grad schools that offered funding and stipend. So if she focused on music and then later has the best possible audition, perhaps that will do more for her financially than her job. I mean, working at low wages might cost her a quality transcript and/or audition and mean less or no funding. Again, if she can afford to think long term like this…
I know a VP grad who is making a nice living for herself right now with lessons, and other gigs. I also know both music majors and dancers who are in med or law school. I mean, majoring in music should not be limiting. Employers are often impressed by it 
If she wants to transfer, then she can certainly look into that given the advice she is being given. Has she talked to a teacher, as opposed to a tutor, about all this? I suggest she have a serious talk with someone she really respects.
A lot of us have financial fears so I don’t want you to think I don’t understand. But I really do believe an undergrad education in music, for BM or BA, is a wonderful way to spend undergrad years and still opens the same doors as any other bachelor’s.
