  We present measurements of the longitudinal magnetic field in the
circumstellar environment of seven classical T Tauri stars. The measurements
are based on high-resolution circular spectropolarimetry of the He I 5876
emission line, which is thought to form in accretion streams controlled by a
stellar magnetosphere. We detect magnetic fields in BP Tau, DF Tau and DN Tau,
and detect statistically significant fields in GM Aur and RW Aur A at one epoch
but not at others. We detect no field for DG Tau and GG Tau, with the caveat
that these objects were observed at one epoch only. Our measurements for BP Tau
and DF Tau are consistent, both in terms of sign and magnitude, with previous
studies, suggesting that the characteristics of T Tauri magnetospheres are
persistent over several years. We observed the magnetic field of BP Tau to
decline monotonically over three nights, and have detected a peak field of 4kG
in this object, the highest magnetic field yet observed in a T Tauri star. We
combine our observations with results from the literature in order to perform a
statistical analysis of the magnetospheric fields in BP Tau and DF Tau.
Assuming a dipolar field, we determine a polar field of ~3kG and a dipole
offset of 40deg for BP Tau, while DF Tau's field is consistent with a polar
field of ~-4.5kG and a dipole offset of 10deg. We conclude that many classical
T Tauri stars have circumstellar magnetic fields that are both strong enough
and sufficiently globally-ordered to sustain large-scale magnetospheric
accretion flows.
