<p>When applying, do you state what major/concentration you are going to go in as, if you have decided? What effect does this have on your college application? Do they look specifically more for the stuff that are related to the major?</p>
<p>It depends on the school being applied to. Some admit by major, some admit everyone as undeclared students, and some do a mix of these methods. Your academics and other admissions stuff may be looked at in context of your indicated major.</p>
<p>At schools which admit by major, it may be difficult to change into a more popular major after enrolling.</p>
