Incoming Freshman - wanting to prepare for a career in Financial Services and deferred MBA admissions

I am currently an incoming freshman at Target and want to pursue Investment Banking and, eventually, Private Equity. I want to eventually follow the 2(IBD)+2(PE)+2 (MBA) route. How should I approach the university to make myself competitive for HSW deferred MBA programs?
