UC Personal Insight Questions (PIQs)
Imagine UC was a person. If you met face-to-face, what would you want them to know about you? These personal insight questions (PIQs) allow you to tell the UC. You could write about your creative side. Your thoughts on leadership. A challenge you’ve faced. Whatever questions you answer, make sure you show them your personality—just as you would in real life.
Directions
You will have 8 questions to choose from. You must respond to only 4 of the 8 questions.
Each response is limited to a maximum of 350 words.
Which questions you choose to answer is entirely up to you. However, you should select questions that are most relevant to your experience and that best reflect your individual circumstances.
