Residence Assistants

Residence Assistants

NTU's Residence Assistants help to develop a comfortable sense of community for students at each of the University's residences.

Residence Assistants (RAs) are second year, third year and postgraduate students who know the challenges associated with living in a new place with new people at NTU. That means they're well-placed to provide you with empathetic support and advice. They can talk through any issues you might be facing, and help you to make new friends.

Our RAs also have strong links with University departments, including accommodation services, student support, and the wardens. If you need help with something, you can contact them and they will refer you to the right member of staff. They're on hand every night and all weekend to address any issues within the residences. 

In return for this RAs receive 50% off their rent in university accommodation. They also receive full training and support through the year, and get some great experience to add to their CV.
