Welcome...and sorry that you share our issue.
But it sounds like you have already gotten good information, and there is a great deal of helpful info AND support on this forum.
You identified some of the key factors in susceptibility to trans ideology -- Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria (ROGD) seems to snare bright girls/young women with social issues, as well as mental health issues such as ADHD/Asperger's/Borderline/depression.
4th Wave Now has great info about this, too. In case you haven't seen this: https://4thwavenow.com/2017/12/07/gender...one-thing/
The college issue is tricky, because almost all of them are overtaken by the trans ideology. Some families are not sending their kids to college for this reason.
Since your daughter has only recently IDed as trans, you have the chance to work with her. If she is the kind of person who will talk, communicate, and consider, that makes a big difference.
It seems that many of our Ds are not willing/able to discuss these issues.
There are many parents here who can help with more specific recommendations.
I wish you the very best.
