FP&A Possibilities after undergrad

Hey all, I am a rising junior at a target school 3.7 GPA hoping to get into FP&A after undergrad. I am currently doing a double major in Finance and MIS, however, I've been thinking about doing Finance/Accounting rather than Finance/MIS due to the nature of FP&A. Can any one with prior experience confirm if Finance/Accounting will be a better fit? Thanks.

Depends on the company you're interviewing with. We have no one in FP&A at our F500 with less than 7 years of experience in finance in some facet.
