In case you're using the web app version of word, that has blank pages left over, it's likely that they're actually not possible to delete in the online version.
Hidden page breaks are only possible to remove in the desktop version of Word. I originally encountered this in the university when writing my thesis on the school template (unfortunately we weren't allowed to use LaTeX), and as I was using Linux I had to install a Windows VM to get rid of the page breaks in the template.
How can they not allow LaTeX and how would they know?
It's a university of applied sciences, they have a very low confidence in their students' IT skills. Either that, or they lack the knowhow to create a LaTeX template. Honestly, probably both.
Theses have a certain set of requirements in the EU, like being archival-compatible and accessible. It's easiest to fulfill those guidelines if you just require people to use a Word template and tick certain boxes when exporting the PDF/A.
I ended up using LaTeX anyway in order to join the code examples as appendices. I had to separately prove that the document still passed all the requirements though. I didn't want to start pasting screenshots of code, as I find it unreadable. You get much better code formatting on LaTeX.
By requiring docx format in the end?
Luckily not, law around here requires all university theses to be in an open and archival compatible format, like PDF/A. No docx allowed for publication.
Unfortunately not my case nobody care here about and most orgs require docx
