Double major with humanities or BS+MS finance in 4 years?

I currently go to a non target school, but because I brought in a good amount of AP credits, I have the option to either double major in finance and international affairs (my school’s very well known for IA) or get an finance BS and MS in the same four years. Both of these would take the same amount of time, but in terms of recruiting and future MBA admissions, would one look better than the other? I heard that some b-schools like having a humanities background
