About This School
Geneva College is a private nonprofit institution located in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania with approximately 1,096 undergraduate students enrolled.

Geneva College is a private Christian college in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, United States. Founded in 1848 in Northwood, Ohio, the college moved to its present location in 1880. It enrolls about 1,400 undergraduates in over 30 majors, as well as graduate students in a handful of master's programs. The undergraduate curriculum emphasizes the humanities and the formation of a Reformed Christian worldview. It is the only undergraduate institution affiliated with the Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America.
Worth considering if you're drawn to a tight-knit Christian community grounded in a Reformed worldview — at $21,043/year net price and just $18,907 in median debt at graduation, the financial picture is relatively manageable. That said, the 61% graduation rate is a real concern, meaning roughly 4 in 10 students don't finish, and median earnings of $43,300 a decade out are modest, so you'll want to think carefully about your intended major and career path. Students who thrive here tend to be intentional about the faith-based environment, not just looking for a small school by default.
