Depends on where you study, I have seen IS curriculum that is designed for liberal arts students and have courses to introduce the Internet. 
Go to the most challenging, quantitative, mathematical major you can get into. Taking the easy way early is going back to hurt you later.

It depends on program curriculum, I think the IS option will be helpful to study quant if the program have a stroug courses on database management, database architecture, data mining, machine learning and a lot of programming (C++ or java).
