Your Resident Advisor is a student who previously lived at International Students House for at least a year and is here to help you feel comfortable in your new community. There will normally be one RA for each floor and they will introduce themselves to you soon after the start of term.
They are trained in basic first aid, mental health awareness and how to respond to a variety of student-related challenges. They also meet regularly with ISH staff to give feedback and report on any issues.
Join your floor's WhatsApp group and keep in touch with them – they are an invaluable source of information, help, support and advice. They will keep you informed about everything that is happening at ISH, so that you can get involved and meet other residents.
You will see the RAs' photos on posters around the building and on this webpage.
