Apply to be a Resident Assistant

Resident Assistant Applications are OPEN for the 2025 Calendar Year

RAs are at the heart of residence life. They build strong communities, provide support to students, and help shape the on-campus experience. If you're a Sophomore or above, this could be the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself, make a real difference, and add to your professional portfolio.

We are looking for a diverse group of people and strengths, including those who may not have previously considered applying for a position in the Residence Life program. We strongly encourage anyone who is interested to apply.

For more information about working in Residence Life, we invite you to attend one of two information sessions where you can ask questions and talk to current RAs:

October 16 at 7 p.m. in Prentiss Hall
October 22 at 8 p.m. in Stanton Hall

Students can access the RA application online. To login, click please click "Sign in with your school account" under the "Sign In" button and login with your Whitman credentials.

Applications are due by 5 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 25. If you have any questions, please reach out to a current staff member, talk to us in Memorial Hall 130, or email us at on_campus_housing@whitman.edu. We look forward to receiving your application.
