College Student Question

Our daughter is a permanent resident of Georgia,  going to university in Alabama. She had a job from January-May 2024 while she was attending university.  She got an internship June - July in Arizona, with the same company ( they are based in AZ) that she had been working with in Alabama. We are having a hard time trying to figure out how to file her taxes. She has two W-2s , one from AL (job while attending school) and one from from AZ (job during internship).

The W-2 from Alabama has her two combined incomes from both AL and AZ as well as Federal Tax, Social Security and Medicare (listed in boxes 1-6).  In boxes 16-19, It has her income and state and local taxes from only Alabama.
The Arizona W-2 has zeros in boxes 1-6 and in boxes 16-17, her income and state taxes, but only for Arizona. 

How in the world is she supposed to do her taxes. Is she suppose to file taxes in both Alabama AND Arizona? And if so, how would she go about this filing?
