Residential Hall Association

The Residence Hall Association (RHA) at NSU is the governing student body and voice of the on-campus student population. RHA works alongside the Office of Residence Life as well as Residential Engagement in fostering unity about the educational and social pursuit of a diverse student population at NSU and represents the community at large.

The RHA Executive Branch are student leaders who advocate and develop the 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 and create long lasting change within the residential community. All students are welcome to join!
