What Is Mansfield Hall?

Mansfield Hall is The Super Dorm for college students.

Mansfield Hall is a living and learning community for college students.

Mansfield Hall is An Idea – The idea that all kinds of young people have the right to build a meaningful life for themselves, and that with the right academic, social, and independent living skill support, and engagement in a community, the college experience can be a great place for students to thrive.

Mansfield Hall is a place where people are celebrated for exactly who they are as they are in the process of becoming who they will be.

Mansfield Hall is where college students can find a safe and supportive place to land, as well as a place where they are provided the extra benefit of a longer runway so that they can generate the momentum, speed, and lift required to be able to take off and fly on their own.

Mansfield Hall is a Community. A community of students, parents, and professionals who are passionately committed to helping students find a Sense of Safety, a Sense of Self, and a Sense of Purpose, and who work tirelessly to help students build the critical skills of Self Monitoring, Self Advocacy, and Applied Executive Functioning.

Mansfield Hall is Even More College Than College.

Community Is At The Center Of Everything We Do

Mansfield Hall is a living and learning community which provides residential, academic, executive functioning, social, and independent living skill support to students who are going to college.

We are not the degree-granting institution, but all of our students are taking classes at one of our local colleges

Located in Burlington, VT, Madison, WI, and Eugene, OR – and a Study Abroad option in Reading, UK – our students come to us from around the world in order to be a part of a comprehensive residential living and learning community which provides not only social connection but also integrated holistic support to facilitate their transition into college, independence, and healthy interdependence as emerging young adults.

Mansfield Hall students can attend any one of our local schools.

Each site offers:

  • A Flagship State University
  • A Community College
  • Private Colleges or Universities

Although they are welcome to pursue a traditional admissions track at one of the local schools, Mansfield Hall students DO NOT need to formally apply to, or be accepted at, our local schools in order to make the Mansfield Hall decision and start their college path by taking real college classes on the local college campus, for real college credit, right away.

We encourage you to explore our website and watch the videos, as well as connect with us to learn more about how we work with students, and local schools, to support a successful college experience.

OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES:

Mansfield Hall Believes

  • A safe, supportive, and diverse community is the best foundation for our college students to transition into young adulthood.
  • Developing meaningful, positive relationships with students in which we demonstrate our authentic enjoyment of and faith in them creates the optimal conditions for personal, social and intellectual growth and resiliency.
  • Listening closely to students and inviting them into a collaborative planning process, in which we help them identify and meet their own goals, allows for increased mastery of academic and life skills and an empowering experience of autonomy and agency.
  • Appropriate academic and social support will allow students with diverse learning needs to excel in a collegiate environment.
  • Providing a successful and positive collegiate experience to students who would not otherwise have access to this offers them greater life opportunity and creates a richer society.
  • Partnering with parents to support their child’s growth and their own transition into the new role of parenting young adults is key to ongoing healthy family relationships.
  • Building interdependence and connection with peers and community members increases students’ capacity to transition to independent young adults.
  • Encouraging our staff to develop their capacity for self-reflection and pursue professional and personal learning goals increases our effectiveness and joy in the work we do with students.
  • Evidence-based research enhances our ability to work effectively with our community and should inform our strategies and models for supporting students.
  • Creating value, meaning, and community for students, parents, staff and our broader collegiate and local communities enriches our relationships and reflects our mission and vision.
