I wouldn’t tell her right now
Wait a little longer, till she gets to know you more.

Best time to tell her is after you get married

someone has to learn and genuinely understand the condition and let go of the stigma and false assumptions to not instantly think the worse of it. them knowing you very well and understanding you personally is a big part of that, as you are a prime example to them that the stigma and assumptions and previously held beliefs of what a person with the condition is like, then comparing it to an actual person with the condition, makes it clear that not everybody is the same and you can help them to actually understand what its really like

There’s no right and wrong answer to telling or not telling. It completely depends on how the other person will react, and that is not within your control. Telling too early could mean scaring away before you endear yourself to her, and too late as if you have been keeping something from her and can’t be trusted. Some people are really against sz and others are not so much.

Maybe you could ask if she’s open-minded with mental health, every mental illnesses
The fact she has a friend dating a schizophrenic you can ask if she met him and if she accepts this relationship

Idk you honestly know better than us wat to do because u r the one who knows wat shes like the most.like @Schizbro said, it really depends on the person how they react.go with your gut feeling on this.
From an outsider perspective, i think maybe giv it a bit more time b4 u tell her. I say this cos if u tell her today, u may feel too much pressure to be really ultra super dopa awezome to comensate for having sz.
Obviously idk if that is the case but thats just an outsider guess.
Just dont leave it way too long.
But if u feel comfortbl to tell her today or tmrrw i really do support that
