Resident Advisor Experience

Lead Where You Live

Resident Advisors (RAs) serve as mentors within MU Housing. These students work closely with MU Housing leadership and connect fellow residents to community and support.

As an RA, you will lead fellow residents by creating a strong sense of belonging, a welcoming community, and a culture of success. In addition, you will help plan activities that drive student engagement on campus.

Interviews will take place in Feb. 2027 for AY 2027-2028​. They will be 30-minute conversations with MU Housing staff. There will be several questions asked and time for you to ask us questions, as well. Submitting an application does not guarantee an interview.
