What happens to engineering drop outs?

My D is starting out as an electrical engineering major and I guess what I want her to know is that it is okay to change her path if she finds that it isn’t what she thought it would be. My H started out in EE and struggled in some weed out classes–loved math, became a math major and actuary. He has a successful career and happy with the way things turned out. I did not know him during that time, but I am glad he had the confidence to not give up or feel like a “drop out” but look at it as a change in direction and thrive in his new found area of interest. It worked out well for him.
