Geneva College Athletics

Founded in 1848 in Northwood, Ohio, by the Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America. In 1880, the College moved to Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, and built a campus on land donated by the Harmony Society. Nearly 1,500 students study in Geneva’s 35 undergraduate majors and five master’s degree programs. Degrees are conferred in engineering, applied music, broadcasting, accounting, English, chemistry, biblical studies, computer science, youth ministry, and many other professions.

For over 150 years, Geneva has been meeting the need for a well-rounded education that integrates academics with biblically based values, allowing students to bring their faith to life. Combining a dynamic campus with a variety of undergraduate areas of study, plus accelerated degree-completion and master’s programs, Geneva offers many opportunities for students to grow intellectually and spiritually. So, whether it’s science, theatre, business, athletics, education, engineering or any other field, a Geneva College degree means quality and character.

The teams at Geneva compete in the American Mideast Conference , the largest conference in Division I NAIA and the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA).
