Then he needs a different major 
I hope you/hhe realizes what undegrad engineering is like. I won’t say everyone hates it, but few would describe it as enjoyable in the same way kids in other majors might. She can expect 25-40 hours a week of homework and studying, constant academic challenge, and pretty much 4 years of calculus. You can pick your times to blow off school, you can have fun at times, but don’t mistake it for a good time. If he hasn’t done so already she should talk with kids that are in college engineering programs to understand their experience, preferably from these schools. You can find info online too such as https://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/06/education/edlife/why-science-majors-change-their-mind-its-just-so-darn-hard.html I don’t say this to frighten him or discourage him from doing engineering, but talk about enjoying college doesn’t seem to jibe with an expectation of what is ahead.
