Next Steps from Target School?

This fall I will start at Stanford as a CS major. I am interested in finance, but I am not sure what my next steps are. Interested in Goldman TMT and MS Menlo Park. Should I consider an econ minor if I want to do well in IB / PE interviews, or would the WSO courses be enough? If anyone could direct me to resources for someone in my position that would be great. Not sure how I should proceed.
