Hello If i marry someone in saudi who has iqama under her family , what can i do ?

My situation is, I am currently studying in university in Riyadh, I am sponsored by my university. If i get a wife who is under a family iqama in saudi , do i transfer her under my sponsorship (i have two years remaining till i graduate) OR should i just leave her under her family visa and just cover the cost of her iqama every year?

Also.... am i able to transfer under her iqama if i graduate university?

Im not sure how this iqama thing works in Saudi. So i would really appreciate some help. thank you sooo much.
