    Am enjoying being here

    The people and teachers are awsome which makes it a wonderful environment to learn and meet new people.
    Bang for the buck

    Every college is expensive, but I definitally think Mansfield is worth every penny.
    Tips for prospective students

    If you like having a smaller school where you know most of the people then mansfield is a great place to further your studies. Also it is a nice, small quiet community.
    Great for these types of students

    People who love to be outside and to have many close friends. College is a time about learning wether its learning how to cope with being away from home or learning many new interesting information about your intended major. Mansfield is a great school for all.

    Am enjoying being here

    There isn't much to do, because of where the campus is located. There is pretty much just a wal-mart which everyone goes to. The people here are really cool mostly everyone gets along. There alot of things going on, on the campus that anyone and everyone can join.
    Bang for the buck

    Its not as expensive as many other universities but it is costly.
    Tips for prospective students

    Don't procrastinate do the work and it will pay off.
    Great for these types of students

    For students who like to be outdoors, don't mind lot of stairs or hills, can get used to the cold and rain and snow.

    Mansfield University(MU) is a small town rural college. It may be a small town rural college but there are plenty of things to do on campus and off campus. Most important MU offers small classes, that allow students to have more interaction with their professors.

    Radiology program is great. Good clinical and work opportunities offered. On-campus living for a semester, always had something to do.
    Tips for prospective students

    Live on campus, you meet so many people and have the opportunity to do so many things.
    Academic Rigor

    A few professors are not in my book of favorites, others are wonderful, helpful and knowledgeable in their subject of teaching. See RateMyProfessor.com, it's very accurate.
    Dorm Life

    Heard the new suites are very nice, but I only lived in Maple. The dorm itself could be updated, cleaner and nicer. Activities are always going on.
    Food and Dining

    Lower Manser is delicious. Just be careful you don't spend all your flex in the first 2 weeeks!
    What to do for fun

    Activity programs in the dorms, the Hut always seems to have things going on.
    Bang for the buck

    Pretty cheap for out-of state (NYS) student.
    Campus Safety

    Actual police officers. I was ALWAYS seen either town or campus police where ever I went.

    Am learning a lot

    The classes are fairly small (with the economy class sizes have had to get a little bigger) and professors know you by name. Even if they only had you one semester, they will remember you when they see you around campus.
    Am enjoying being here

    I can't image being anywhere else. I have made the best friends I could have ever asked for here and more memories than I thought possible.
    Tips for prospective students

    Keep your mind open. Even though it seems like there's nothing to do in Mansfield, ask any student and they will be more than willing to tell of all the activities they are involved in and invite you to join them. My evenings and weekends are constantly filled with activities I'm involved in. It's not at all like it seems.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who love the small town atmosphere. It's not a big city with restaurants, movie theaters, and clubs everywhere. Mansfield is a quaint, close-knit family atmosphere where you can get coffee in the cafe on the corner, take a pleasant stroll around the town, or join in on the local farmers' market. Even if you don't know someone's name, you know them by their face because it's such a close university and town.
