F1/F2/H1 status question

I am holding F1 and OPT is expiring in mid June. I am going to submit H1b petition with a starting date of Oct 1st. My wife(F2) is going to request a change of status to F1. It is quite not possible for her request to get approved before the school summer session starts. The fall session starts in late September. My question is:

Will it be ok for her to start school in Sep if it is approved in Jul? Since it is far beyond my OPT grace period and she cannot enroll full time in summer to maintain status.

If my H1b get appvoed in late April. Can I submit a request to change status to F2 in Jul which is in my OPT grace period to keep status? Will this void my H1b?

Thansk very much.
