No other student position during your college years can provide you with the opportunities available to you as a Resident Advisor. When you think of an RA, you think of words like: leader, mentor, role model, outgoing, helpful, understanding, innovative, successful, hard-working, giving, and focused. For those willing to accept the challenge, it is an experience that will provide life-long benefits and memories.

Imagine a job where your primary role is to make a difference in the lives of other people on a daily basis...that is what a Resident Advisor does!

Imagine taking a group of college students from diverse backgrounds and turning them into a community of peers who will share the college experience together....that is what a Resident Advisor does!

 

Hear it from the source....

"Being an RA has been one of the best things I have done since I came to UVa-Wise. An RA is not just a person who takes care of his or her residents; an RA is a person who truly cares about people. She is a friend, and a confidant. As an RA I have come into contact with so many different people. Every person that I have met has helped shape the person that I am today.  This is not just a job for me; this is a part of my life that is irreplaceable."
