In grade six, he went door to door selling a Christmas album called Have a Merry Charlie Christmas that he had recorded and produced, making $600 in sales.

He attended the Holy Cross School, Rumson, and Forrestdale Middle School, before graduating from the Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School in 2010. During his seventh grade to senior years, he attended Manhattan School of Music Pre-College as a jazz piano major and a classical studies minor.

Personal life

Puth was bullied at school. He stated: "..they would team up against me so bad and they would kick me in a place that wouldn't feel fantastic and I would need to throw up and they would then say I was pretending to throw up."

He has also disclosed on On Air with Ryan Seacrest that he suffered a nervous breakdown. He stated: "[The nervous breakdown happened from] just being overworked and I'm in my head a lot and that, in combination with jet-lag and you know the self realization that I am getting more famous and my privacy goes out the window pretty much every day, it's just not what I'm used to and I don't think I'm ever going to be used to it and my therapy is to just put melody to it and sing it."
