The Residence Hall Association (RHA) is the governing student body that serves as a voice for the on-campus students at NSU. RHA collaborates with the Office of Residence Life and Residential Engagement to successfully foster unity, support the success of its students, and strengthen the educational and social experience of NSU’s diverse student population. RHA represents the interests and needs of its residents to the broader university community.
The RHA Executive Branch consists of student leaders who advocate and develop a strong community within the residential areas! These students are current residents who are creating events and attending meetings to get a better understanding of the residential leadership model. Members will learn how to successfully create long lasting change within the residential community based on the needs of residents. All students are encouraged to join!
Perks of Joining RHA at NSU:
- Earn Hours Toward 1 ExEL Credit
- Leadership Development Series
- Be a Voice for Your Community
- Attend Regional & National Leadership Conferences
- Event Planning & Program Design
- Professional Growth & Skill Development
Connect to Campus Resources & Opportunities

This leadership workshop, if coupled with RHA General Body Meetings, will result in one unit of Exel credit that all students need to complete before graduating at NSU.
