Sample Autobiographies

Overview

Let's face it. It is difficult to write about yourself and many applicants are not sure where to begin when writing an autobiography. When writing your autobiography, feel free to focus on your academic life, personal life, or both, whatever you are comfortable sharing. Remember, it is really a way for us to get to know you a little better.

Below are two autobiographies (in PDF format) that were submitted for Computer Honors Institute. Feel free to use them as a guide when writing yours.
