Mansfield Hall: Get More Out Of College
Mansfield Hall is a living and learning community for students who are capable of great things – especially when they have the kind of support that values them as individuals and helps them make and meet their own goals in our Four Core Areas of Living, Learning, Giving, and Engaging.
Come to college with the freedom and opportunities you want and the support and scaffolding you need – all while being a part of a vibrant social living and learning community.
If you would like to learn more about how Mansfield Hall can support your college dreams please review this site and connect with an Admissions Representative.
For
Families
College is a great next step – and one that students and their families do not have to take on their own.
Mansfield Hall is a living and learning community designed to support students who are both college-capable, and who may also still benefit from academic, executive functioning, social, and/or independent living skill support.
While our students are college-capable and college-curious they may still be building skills in Self Monitoring, Self Advocacy, and Applied Executive Functioning, and/or may still be developing skills in our Four Core Areas of Living, Learning, Giving, and Engaging. Although they may be neurodiverse (ADHD, autism or ASD-I, learning differences or disabilities, etc.), they are also capable of pursuing formal post-secondary education and making a supported transition to college and independence.
If you would like to learn more about how Mansfield Hall supports diverse learners, and their families, please review this site and contact us to speak to an Admissions Representative.

Feeling overwhelmed in college- but not sure why? you’re not alone.
The key isn’t just “pushing through”, it’s learning to recognize what’s happening before you hit that wall, and having systems to reset.
That might look like:
• stepping outside for a walk
• box breathing between classes
• putting on a guided meditation
• reaching out to someone you trust
Small supports = big difference over time.
At Mansfield Hall, we help students build the awareness and tools to regulate, recharge, and navigate college in a way that actually works for them.
What’s one thing that helps you reset when you’re overwhelmed?

Excellent week across the board!
People Ops team member Jo touched down in Madison, receiving a warm welcome with coffee and a trip to see the Capitol building. VP of Program Ops Hayley grounded herself and took in the beauty of the Statehouse. Pancakes were served, and Burlington student Nikhil took the stage to perform with his choir.
A great week to zoom out and back in- and reflect on all the things we have to be grateful for!

College can be energizing… and draining.
If you’ve ever felt socially exhausted, you’re not alone.
Understanding your limits (and what helps you recharge) can make all the difference.

Hangin` in there until spring weather kicks in!
This week at Mansfield Hall our Eugene, OR students did some rock climbing, Burlington, VT connections students took an outing to the bowling alley/arcade, while others took a trip to a local sugar house to learn about all things maple syrup. Students in Madison, WI continued their endeavors to learn about all things maintenance...and they make it look fun!
Happy Friday Friends- enjoy the weekend.
Mansfield Hall had the joy of hosting some professionals at our Madison, WI location recently, which included a student panel.
One of the questions asked was: What do you like about Mansfield Hall?
The answer: how inclusive it is.
No one gets to choose the brain they have, but we do get to choose the world we create. We choose to accept, celebrate, and work toward a world that’s more inclusive of every brain and the incredible things they can do.
Happy World Autism Awareness Day. We see you, and we celebrate you for all that you are and all that you can be!

Sensory overload happens when your brain receives more sensory input than it can comfortably process.
Our nervous systems are constantly taking in information, but when there’s too much coming in (or it’s coming too fast) our systems can become overwhelmed.
We get it, and it can be managed with small, intentional supports like reducing input, creating predictable routines, and building in quiet recovery time.
