Residence Hall Association (RHA)


The Residence Hall Association (RHA) of Arizona State University-Tempe is the student government for every ASU student living on-campus. The purpose of RHA is to enhance the quality of residence hall life and provide a cohesive voice for the residents by addressing the concerns of the on-campus populations to university administrators and other campus organizations; providing cultural, diversity, educational, and social programming; establishing and working with individual hall councils.

Any student living in the residence halls of ASU-Tempe are encouraged to gain valuable leadership skills through this student organization! In 2008, the RHA of ASU-Tempe was voted "Best School of the Year" out of over 400 higher education institutions!

Student Involvement Promotions Process

Student organizations and ASU affiliated departments are encouraged to sponsor programs consistent with the Arizona State University Mission and to view our residence hall facilities as a resource.
Therefore, the Department of Residential Life invites university recognized clubs, organizations, student groups, and departments to promote their services, events, and goals to other students on campus.
