Resident Assistants (RAs) are UCF students who play a crucial role as resources and mentors within your community. They are selected and trained to be attentive to the academic, emotional, and social challenges that residents may face, especially during the adjustment to residence hall living. We strongly encourage you to connect with your RA and establish a relationship with them as they can provide valuable support during your transition to living on campus.
Your RA will proactively reach out to you throughout the semester to arrange meetings, either one-on-one or in small groups. It is highly encouraged for all residents to maintain regular communication with their RA. They are here to assist you and ensure that you have a positive living experience.
During the first few weeks of school, Resident Assistants in all communities will be hosting opening community meetings to share important information regarding upcoming programs, policies, and community specific information. Students will receive information about these meetings during move-in.
