The Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Residence Hall Association (RHA) is an organization comprised of representatives from all of the residence halls on campus. RHA advocates for the interests and welfare of residence hall students, while providing opportunities for their personal growth and development. It is an organization of students committed to developing leadership, honoring diversity, recognizing achievement, as well as stimulating engagement and involvement among all students.

Each year, RHA hosts a Navigating Rensselaer and Beyond (NRB) day trip, the NRB CommUniversity event, Operation: Lucky Duck, Eco-Hall Challenge, and the end-of-the-year Spring Fling. Additionally, each residence hall group throws parties, game tournaments, and other social and philanthropic events throughout the year.
