Well coming from a university student on her second degree I can say it fully depends on her program (how demanding it is) and the policies of the school. I could have easily taken weeks off my last program and been able to keep on top of it myself but if there were any examinations it wouldn't be possible because my university has a policy that any missed exams have to have the value added onto the final (which can be a disaster). In my current program, however, it would be impossible to miss more than a day (it's an unreasonably intensive program). I've taken vacations during the semester during my last degree but it's important to wait until she has her course outline so you can schedule around examinations, etc. That way she can discuss it with her prof's before booking so she knows if it's possible or not!
