If a certificate is considered the equivalent of a diploma, she can, but if the certificate was a courtesy because she spent four years in special education classes, then she would probably have to get a GED before going on to college.

Yes, some schools do not give diploma's they only give a certificate of Achievement.
It either case a copy of her high school transcripts will be needed just like someone with a diploma to attend college.

From About.com:
"Nearly all colleges and most trade schools do require a high school diploma or its equivalent for entrance, so anyone holding a certificate of completion will need to go back and complete the necessary academic requirements to get one before they can apply. The same is true, generally speaking, for military enlistment and receiving federal student aid. But there is no sense in which the mere fact of having received a certificate of completion or attendance permanently disqualifies one from pursuing any of these goals."

Yep. She'll need to pass the SATs, but that shouldn't be a big deal.
