Community Assistant Application Process, 2010-2011 Academic Year

All applications must be submitted via our online process.  Candidates are strongly encouraged to attend an information session prior to submitting an application.  The application consists of several questions, including three essay questions.  Candidates are able to save their application at any point.  Candidates are encouraged to review their application before submitting their final application

Essay Responses
We strongly recommend that you type your essay responses in a Word application so that you have the ability to save your responses in the event that the application times out. That way you can save your responses and then paste your responses into the web application.

References
Each candidate is required to submit the name of one individual who would be able to speak to your potential ability to be a CA.   Candidates should attempt to list a university member as their reference (ex: Resident Assistant, Community Assistant, Student Affairs Staff Member, Professor).  You may ask a former advisor, coach, and/or teacher as well.  Please do not list your roommate or a relative for your reference.

Once your application is submitted, emails will automatically be sent to your reference.  They will be sent a link to fill out a reference form.

We encourage all candidates to contact their reference prior to submitting an application to ask if they are willing to fill out a form for you.

The deadline for all reference forms is Friday February 5.

Interview Process
Community Assistant Candidates will have one 30-minute interview to take place in early to mid February.

Scheduling an Interview
Candidates will be contacted starting Tuesday January 19 to schedule your Community Assistant interview.
