I would absolutely recommend her going. Two years ago my daughter, who is now a sophmore at UCD (and loving it), got just such an invitiation. She had previously visited the campus and was not too enthusiastic about it (“too big”, “smelly cows”, etc.). We encouraged her to visit on High School Scholars Day, even though it meant missing a day of high school, and it completely changed her perception. The smaller and more intimate discussions and the testimonials from current students really had in impact on her. It made here realize that although the University was large, that did not mean that it was impersonal. Best college visit we ever made. She still talks about what a difference it made for her.
