If I can get my two cents in.....from what I notice those who major in accounting can go into either finance or the accounting field, but not necessarily vice versa. Not sure what reputation Lehigh has as a business program, but IMO if you are from a lower tier school an accounting program would be more suitable to gain employment in finance. You may want to combine the Mathematics with Accounting instead.
According to the Bloomberg rankings Lehigh is consistently a top-30 undergrad business school if that helps at all. However it's apparently a much better accounting school than finance.
Then it may be a better idea to do the combo I suggested, and you can still have a a good (if not better) shot at a finance job and enjoy the option of the more plentiful accounting jobs as well.

I would redact your university. Maybe give a comparable group of schools instead.
