Would you like to be an RA? http://www.collegehouses.upenn.edu/join/ra

Who should apply?

• Full-time students who will be at least a sophomore in the 2019-20 academic year but have not yet received an undergraduate degree are eligible for undergraduate Resident Advisor (RA) positions. In addition, applicants must be currently enrolled in classes with a GPA of at least 2.50 and must maintain minimum GPA for the duration of appointment. 

When to apply?

• RA applications open on November 27, 2018. Completed applications are due by noon on January 17, 2019. Applications will be received on a rolling basis, and interviews will be between November 27, 2018 and Jan. 17, 2019. Offer letters will be sent out on Jan. 28th, 2019.

How much time is required?

• RAs/GAs are required to spend approximately 15-20 hours per week. It is important to understand that due to the nature of this work there will be weeks when the time commitment will be greater than this average. For instance, during the month of August, staff should expect to be very busy participating in fall Staff Orientation, New Student Orientation and opening activities.
• Student staff must attend all sessions of RA/GA Fall Training, Winter Training, and in-service training meetings throughout the year as designated by the House Dean and the Office of College Houses & Academic Services.
