Student Leadership @ RGI

Are you looking for a way to get involved on campus, build your leadership skills, and support your fellow Coogs? The Office of Retention and Graduation Initiatives (RGI) offers student leadership opportunities that allow you to do just that.

Through our leadership programs, you’ll play a key role in helping new and continuing students feel connected, supported, and confident in their UH journey. Whether you're guiding students through orientation, mentoring peers, or leading a team, you'll gain valuable experience and make a lasting impact.

  • College Peer Assistants (CPAs): CPAs support new students during orientation and registration, working closely with academic advisors to ensure a smooth transition to UH.
  • DENS Leaders: Coming Soon
  • Peer Assistant Leaders (PALs): Peer Assistant Leaders are dedicated student mentors here to support your academic journey at the University of Houston. 
  • Student Orientation Leaders (SOLs): Work with new students and their family and supporters to introduce new students to UH, and all the academic, social and cultural aspects of becoming a Cougar.
