Schools know that the a crazy number of students apply based on campus "vibe" alone and as a result, spend a pile on campus asthetics. Sure, nobody wants to spend 4 years looking at a moonscape campus but your SD needs to understand that nobody hires grads based on how their school's campus looked. Make sure she attends a school that is demanding of her. Writing papers teaches people how to form and communicate ideas. Exams of other than multiple choice ensure students know the material well enough to write about it...no hiding. Good grads from these schools do well. These sorts of schools are the exception and need to be sought out.

BTW, PT grad school admission is historically unreasonably difficult and there are plenty of folks who never get in yet are left with a useless undergrad degree. PT's themselves can find that the job starts a pretty good pay rate but tops out quickly (as an employee) and the future looks sketchy as an independent. I'm not a PT but know several.
