Where does a VA resident who is a full-time out-of-state student (in CA)with a part-time job (in CA) owe taxes?

My daughter is a resident of Virginia but a full-time student in California. She pays out of state tuition. She has a part-time job in California. Where should she be paying taxes?  Does it make a difference if her income is less than $2500?

She will need to file a VA and CA return. In her VA return she will enter her VA income ( zero I assume) and file a non resident CA return.
