You can claim her as a dependent and also claim her education expenses (on form 1098-T).
She does not need to file a tax return as her gross income from a job is less than $6,300. However, she may wish to file a tax return as she will receive a refund of all the federal tax withheld. If she had state tax withheld, she should also file a state return to get a refund. She has to indicate on her return that she is claimed as a dependent by someone else (in the Personal Info section of TurboTax).
