Alexis - 07/19/2020

The campus is small but also very beautiful and serene. I love living on campus and college life overall. The independence Mansfield gives me being 3 1/2 hours from home is nice but also because I no longer get homesick now that Mansfield is my home away from home. The food is actually really good and they have many vegetarian options for me.

Dominick

I believe that it is a very nice school if you like small classes and direct help. The professors will do what they can to make sure you are successful. Overall, it is a great learning environment. I encourage people to consider Mansfield University in the future.

Sharima

I love Mansfield so much and plan on spending the rest of my years here until I graduate.

Hailey

I absolutely love Mansfield University. The environment is so welcoming, everyone are so friendly. You never really have to worry about people being jerks as everyone mostly keeps to themselves, or they are very friendly. The staff is absolutely amazing! They are so active with their students. Mansfield is an amazing college and I would recommend them to anyone any day.

    Out of my college experience, I've learned how to adapt. Not only to the intense weather, but to the ever changing moods and personalities this university has within. Before coming to college I already knew I had the skills to succeed, and coming here has helped me build and solidify all of them. I believe this is, in part, due to the faculty. I'm a music education major, so I'm around all of the faculty on a regular basis. I've gotten to be very close with some professors; some of whom have become like fathers to me. The faculty-student relationship is one of respect, admiration, and companionship which is something that I'll take away and cherish from this university forever.
