definitely plan for this. if thanksgiving/christmas are a big deal for your family then she should ideally pick a school that is not too expensive to get to and from from home. while i do not for a second regret my choice of school (2000+ miles from home), i have not been home for thanksgiving all 4 years and this will make the second year i do not go home for christmas (this second time was more my choice since i decided to go on a tour abroad). if i had chosen a school closer to home, then i would have not missed these holidays with my family.
