Finance major considering a dual major in computer science?

Hi I am currently a freshman at Miami University in Ohio. I am a Finance major in the Farmer School of business with a solid 3.8 GPA. I currently have a computer science minor but I am considering dual majoring. Changing my minor into a computer science or possibly software engineering major would mean significantly more work. I am looking to get into the best IB position I can despite coming from a non-target which I understand will take an enormous amount of work in terms of networking. Is the increased workload worth the extra job marketability?
