UC Personal Insight Questions

The UC Personal Insight Questions are a set of prompts that prospective students answer as part of their university application. These questions are designed to give the admissions team a better understanding of your personality, experiences, goals, and strengths beyond academic records. By responding thoughtfully, you showcase your unique qualities, how you handle challenges, and what motivates you. Essentially, they help the university see the whole person behind the application, enabling a more holistic review process focused on your individual story and potential contribution to campus life.
