Support Test for determining HOH status

I am preparing a Tax Return for a Single Mother who works at a Bank and received a 2019 W-2 from her job for $34k. She lives with her daughter who is 22 years old and a FT student. The daughter had a part-time job for 2019 where she received a W-2 for $19k. She received a 1098-T from the College she attended showing scholarships and grants of $4k greater than the tuition paid for 2019. The mother lives in an apartment with her daughter and paid all of the applicable household expenses (rent, utilities, food, etc.) for 2019 totaling about $22,500 . Is there any way that the Mother can claim HOH status for 2019?
