Honestly? Unless she needs some very specialist windows only software and if you have access to Education discounts - I'd get the new macbook air with the new M1 processor - it will fly around any similar priced windows laptop, have better battery life , will have decent resale value at the end of her time at college iand will work fine with o365 (whichly likely she will get for free).
I say that as someone who has always had and used windows machines.
