Andrew from Ulster, PA
Mansfield University is set in the mountains, surrounded by the changing colors of autumn and attended by the most wonderful people one could ever meet. Everyone wants to help one another settle in and find their niche in the university life, leaving no college freshman behind as we all climb through each week of graduation. At Mansfield University, there is always something to do and someone to do things with!
