Why did you apply to be an
RA? |
I wanted to be an RA because
I wanted to get involved at my school. As an RA there are
endless possibilities to take action in the UNH community
and so many opportunities to do things in and around campus.
Another reason I got involved was to pay it forward. As
a freshman my RA helped me with the transition and I wanted
to be able to be there for those coming into UNH as well. |
What was the application
process like for you? |
The application process
was not bad at all. You just answer a few questions and
the interviews were a good experience. |
Has the RA experience been
what you expected? Why or why not? |
I thought I had a good idea
of the job, but I have learned a lot while being an RA
that I did not know. So to answer the question no, but
it has been positive. I have had a great experience as
an RA. I am always learning new and fun things. |
What is the most rewarding
aspect of being an RA? |
The most rewarding part
of the job is making lots of friends not only with staff
but also with residents. Furthermore, seeing people having
pride their community is really rewarding. |
What has been
the biggest challenge for you? |
My biggest challenge
has been time management. There is always something to
be doing. |
What advice would you give
to someone considering becoming an RA? |
Yea it’s a job, but
don’t forget to have fun with it. It is a great experience,
and there is so much to offer from it. Stop thinking about
it and get involved!!! |
