Get Involved at Seventh Residence Life!

Make your experience even better by getting involved!

Residents at Seventh College have a plethora of opportunities to engage with the community! Whether it's programing for fellow residents as an Resident Assistant (RA), helping out in the Residence Life Office as an Office Assistant (OA), or creating college-wide events about our Changing Planet as part of the Resident Council (7RC)! Read on for more information on all these opportunities.

RESIDENTS ASSISTANTS

Resident Assistants (RAs) are our live-in student staff members! They plan events, facilitate meetings with you and your suitemates, assist with maintaining safety for the community, and so much more!

  1. On your journey to becoming a RA, the first step is to attend one of our Info Sessions!

    Seventh College Residence Life will be hosting Info Sessions to answer your questions and give you an overview of what it is like to be an RA for Seventh College. We highly recommend attending one of these info sessions live before applying, however, if none of these sessions work for you, a recording will be posted here and on our application website for you to review at your leisure after the final info session. See our info session dates and locations below:

    • Thursday 11/21 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM in the Seventh College Multipurpose Room (First Floor of Building 2 West)
    • Friday 11/22 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM on Zoom
    • Wednesday 12/4 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM on Zoom
  2. After attending an Info Session or watching the recording, the second step is to apply to the RA position by filling out the Seventh College RA Application

    This application closes on January 5th 2025 at 11:59 PM PST and will not accept any applications submitted after that date and time. The form should save your information, so feel free to spend as much time as you need filling out the form. If you have any questions or need clarification, please email seventhRAselection@ucsd.edu.

  3. The third step in the process is interviews!

    After the application closes, our team carefully reviews each and every application to select candidates to interview. Once that is done, if you are selected to attend a live Zoom interview you will receive an email to your UCSD student email address with the information regarding when you can sign up for an interview. Interviews will take place during the first two weeks of February 2025 so please keep that time clear if you can. Additionally, if you are not selected for an interview, you will also receive notification via email that you won't be moving forward in the process during this time.

  4. The fourth and final step is receiving an offer for the RA position via phone or email! This will occur sometime in March 2025.

    Please keep in mind the turn around for accepting an offer is usually very quick, so please check your email regularly during this time. If you aren't accepted in this year's round of RA selection, we strongly encourage you to apply again next year!

Apply here to be a 2025-2026 RA/HA!
