music business major (NYU)

Hey to all!

So, as most of you know, I am auditioning at schools for vocal performance (and one school for musical theater.) But, I have been researching NYU's music dept in Steinhardt and have grown fond of it (at least on paper, that is.) I like their vocal performance program curriculum, but...I have recently been looking into their music business program. I am not necessarily the most skilled business person but, I feel like maybe auditioning for this program has its many pros/cons, so that it's more well-rounded (if I so chose to want a liberal arts education--still up in the air,) and prepares you for the world of music and for business (which could help in the long run--since music is essentially a business when you get down to the nitty gritty.)

Now, I'm not hopping up and down over this, but I am curious to know some thoughts. Do you think this would be a good side idea? (I still will probably go for vocal performance, but this sparked some interest in me.)
