Our Locations
Built on the concept of “The Super Dorm,” Mansfield Hall brings together community, comprehensive supports, and student meals and housing all together in one place – The Hall.
Choosing to be a part of Mansfield Hall means being a part of a great college town – with all the support you need to get the most out of the experience.
Our students want to have an authentic college experience in great college towns, so we identified cities where the campus is the heartbeat of the community. Each location is easily accessible and pedestrian-friendly, and also has the public transportation infrastructure to get you anywhere you want to go.
Our college towns provide a variety of colleges and univerisities within close proximity to The Hall, and most of the schools allow for non-matriculated coursework, also known as open-enrollment. This means you can register for regular classes with other students, and get regular college credits which can be transferred in or out – all without having to formally apply or being accepted at the local school.
Whether you are looking for a large university, a smaller private college, or even a community college we have academic options which will fit your needs and interests.
We are located in college towns that have a reputation for progressive ideas and open minds about innovative services, and also provide students with lots of opportunities to pursue both your passions and your dreams. As you will experience, Madison, Burlington, and Eugene meet these requirements entirely.
Nevertheless, each town has its own unique flavor, feel, academic options, and specific reasons to call it home. Additionally, students who have successfully completed a residential year in one of our 3 locations can consider Connections (non-residential support in one of our 3 locations), Canopy College Coaching (remote coaching services), or even our Study Abroad option (in Reading, UK).
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.
