The Office of Residence Life is now accepting Resident Assistant Applications for the 2027–2028 School year. RA’s must be leaders, role models, and resources for their residents; however, just as important, they must be team players that work with and support other staff in their own hall as well as other halls on campus.

The application deadline is Tuesday, Jan. 12, 2027, at 11:59 p.m. (during the J-Term period).

There are two RA Informational sessions:

Friday, Nov. 13, 2026, at 5 p.m. in Room 310, upper Olmsted

Monday, Nov. 30, 2026, at 5 p.m. in Room 310, upper Olmsted

If you have any questions regarding the application or interview process itself, please contact Randy E. McMullin, associate director of Residence Life, at randy.mcmullin@drake.edu.

We would encourage you to reach out to your own RA or another RA should you have questions about the position from a student perspective.
