Learning
College is central to the Mansfield Hall experience. All of our students are taking college classes and are engaged in formal post-secondary education.
Academic success in college means a whole lot more than just understanding the quadratic equation or proper MLA-styled footnotes – it also means understanding one’s own learning style, harnessing and honing college-level study and writing skills, and learning how to access and utilize the many resources that are available on a college campus, and in a college town.
Mansfield Hall is designed to support diverse learners and those with identified learning disabilities in making a successful transition into college. Students receive expert executive functioning support, high-quality writing instruction, and consistent coaching – all while engaging in both a supportive community and their own authentic college experience.
Our students can choose to start as a fully-matriculated student by applying to, and being accepted at, one of the local institutions, or they can choose to start out college as a non-matriculated student – but still take the same courses, for transferrable credit, as any other student.
As a result, students do not need to apply to college in order to start taking classes at Mansfield Hall.
With a variety of colleges and universities to choose from, locations in iconic college towns across the country, and expert academic support available within a comprehensive residential community, Mansfield Hall is ready to support your student’s transition to college.

We`re doing our best to soak up these last fall days- it was well worth the effort this hike took!
There’s some fascinating research coming out surrounding the possible links between neurodivergence, hyper mobility, and regulation right now.
The overall conversation is surrounding the idea that neurodivergent folks are 4 times more likely to have generalized hypermoblity- a connective tissue disorder where the ligaments in the body are looser and thusly have to effort extra hard to hold everything in the body together. This additional effort the body has to exert daily to keep everything in order may be linked to a host of things, all pointing to the idea that these folks systems are working overtime to keep regulated.
Exercise, especially strength training can help ease this strain on the body by strengthening the muscles around the ligaments, which can help ease the job of those ligaments with consistent training over time.
Mansfield Hall offers students the opportunity to join in for two structured workouts a week focused on upper and lower body as well as core stability for this reason!

This week at Mansfield Hall was our week of giving.
We recognize that we benefit from the communities we are a part of, and it’s our beliefs that it’s our responsibility to give back to the spaces that enrich us.
Students and staff were welcomed at a local farm to harvest over 1,800 lbs of apples, which will go to feeding 500 food insecure families around the state.
Happy Friday Everyone 🍎
